Facelift CLS front lip/aero

Is there any front lips available for the facelift CLS? With the exception of the 2 $800+ ones.

I'm usually pretty good at finding these things but out of luck with the cls

Something like this? https://www.ebay.ca/itm/Front-Bumper...Cclp%3A2334524

I'm just going to be wrapping my front chrome lip instead so it matches my panamericana grill which is also black. What I've been looking for for over a year are some gloss black side skirts for the facelift CLS. Carbon fibre ones are about $520 cad and none of the people on eBay are negotiating them. Who knows, might pull the trigger on the carbon fibre side skirts soon.

Yeah that seems to be the only one, and it looks like a "universal" lip. At first glance, it looks like the ones meant for our cars - but then you see the 3 piece configuration and I don't think it will fit well (it's the same as the C class one?)

I had one custom made in russia for my w204 but they had no dice either.

Side skirts are always expensive so no surprise. Shipping gets you no matter what.

I think it would fit well, and yeah ours is the 3 piece one but I'm not sure if the C class is like that as well. I actually did pull the trigger on gloss black side skirts off someone on eBay but he sent them for the 2019+ CLS.. To return them back to get my money, the shipping cost was $180 and I paid $412 CAD.. Got me in a whole mess and had to open a dispute with my bank with PayPal lol. Once that's resolved I may buy them.

Kind of weird to explain, the "stock" chrome lip is 3 piece, but for the aftermarket ones....

The original Brabus/side winged ones are all one piece.
The "generic" cf lips are 3 piece. And all the pictures look the same - hence why this ebay listing doesn't have any pictures with the lip actually on a CLS. That's why I'm worried.

I have purchased some side skirts from a manufacturer.

Also have sourced front lip maker from Georgia (the country) but we will see what comes of it.

There's no link, I will test fit them and stuff first, then let you know if they're any good
otherwise I just blew some money but that's part of the process I guess.

So I got the side skirts and just did a test fit on them. Honestly, I've never had side skirts, but I kind of wanted to try them out. From the test fit though, not really my thing.

If anyone is interested in them, feel free to PM me. They will require some trimming to length, and now have some slight scratches on the inner part of one side of the skirts (I guess they scratch easy, but you can't see this part of the skirt. Other side is untouched.)

Here are the images just for the heck of it. Also tried them on my w204 just to see.
Obviously, they are not fitting perfect because they are not screwed in. But Mercedes skirts are shaped a bit weird anyways.

Might be better viewed on mobile....

Those look kinda similar to pre facelift side skirts like these: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/2PCS-Carbon-...kAAOSwRylfbYX8

The ones for the 2015-2017 are these: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/Carbon-Fiber...cAAOSwLEtYmCw3

Nah, the ones for facelift you linked aren't side skirts extensions. The prefacelift ones are, and they make similar ones for the facelift. Those ones you linked for facelift are simply fillers(covers) for the inner part of our side skirts. I just plan on wrapping that part.
