Something about that bumper just doesn't seem right, IMO. I still prefer the original Brabus front w/ quad fogs.

Very nice and aggressive, but it reminds me of the japanese after market bumpers.

Yeah it looks like a giant shovel....for what....no intercooler to cool, doesn't seem that large of an opening is warranted. IMO it breaks up the lines of the car...I'd much prefer a more subtle look.

Brabus N.A says the bumper is very limited in availability. Hence Kronen will take pre orders right now for those who are interested in purchasing the new bumper.

Yup. Depends on how aggressive the owner wants his car to look.

More information

Brabus will not sell the CF add on lip separately from the Rocket Bumper. There are two types;

One is fully carbon fiber, retails at $5500
The other, is shown by the picture above. The bumper is made from PUR and the lip is carbon fiber. Retails at $3000.
Contact Kronen Tuning for availabilty.

Too aggressive for a luxury Sedan. It's beautiful but it's not a sports coupe. When I need someone hypnotized, I'm calling the folks at DC, they have all these people thinking this car is a coupe. Amazing, the power of suggestion. Let me try this. I'm the most powerfulman in the world. I'm the most powerful man in the world. I'm the........it's not working. Anyway, this front piece would look better on a sports coupe imo.
