was '03 E320 - now - '04 S4
Pics? I saw a Lorinser kit with really cheesy fenders at the Seattle H-I-N...

If it has those fenders with the vents in them, I'd say no...

just my opinion though...

Pogotango,

One question? Can you hook a brother up? $1500 for Brabus kit sounds like a deal to me

Tezta, is that E55 your ride? Obviously, the photograph was taken in HK as the car is RHD. She is a beauty!

the brabus kit fits the E class perfectly (in all colors) but it's more classic than the AMG, that brings a more sport touch. It's a matter of choice.
