For anyone who wants to convert their 96-99 E to a MY00+ bumper they have these too - so it can be done afterall...:


Must say, my favorite is the trunk lid+spoiler!:

Performance Products sells this crap! Did you even notice that on the MY00+ updated bumper it has a lip right underneath the center of the headlight where the bumper overlaps the fender trim. Why the heck did you even post these nasty pics. Dave, lol?!

Cuz Alex is kinda "alternative"...hee, hee. And there are guys out there who want to have an MY00+ front.

I'm shure the MY00+ fronts have those lips below the front corners. WTF r u talking about???????

Do you see right where the fender wraps under the headlight on the bottom corner and the new bumper comes in at a slant, the new bumper is actually going over the fender and there is a small lip there. Otherwise, to get it to fit properly you'd have to cut the fender out from the bottom of the healight. Know what I mean?

The Expression rear deck lid wing retails for $475 (part # 75-101) at Performance Products...inc. lid spoiler only, not the trunk. Last I checked a few weeks ago, they were out of stock.

Jimmy, I'm still not too sure what you're talking about but if its where the headlight cleaners are, it does look a bit awkward but not tool bad...anyways, not my taste but someone might be interested.

Hubert, it sure looks like a whole new trunklid, even if the spoiler doesn't include it...I think ti would be something very different.

Jimmy and RIch, so Performance Product sells the exact same *****? They're a Belgium company...I thought it was a new find, ohhhwell....

Alex, the Wald would be a better match....goodluck on your search.

Hard to explain, nevermind, it just doesn't sit flush on the car, there's a fugly lip.

Anyway, yeah Performance Products sells Expressions. I was just over at their showroom yesterday with a buddy of mine fixing up his 4X4...

I get you now - duh . Right on the corner right? The joint on ours is horizontal whilst the new ones go on at a slant so they need to fit it over the fender....yeah, it is a real flaw. However, they do make a nice kit for the W209s IMO.
