So the current choices are Brabus, Carlsson, Lorinser, Klemann and Wald. However, I don't seem to be able to edit the poll...
, can anyone help me out on this?

The True OG Modded out W203
Call me Uncle Ben and pass me my chicken and beer but I been feeling that Lorinser kit since it came out. Trust me that kit would have been on my E since I bought it but I am in my 12 step mod withdrawal program:p

1. are there any other Carlsson designs? I like carlsson, but the new one for W211 is a bit off my taste.
2. never modified car before, but anyone can give me price range of:
a. Carlsson (bodykit + wheels) --> the one on picture
b. Brabus (bodykit + wheels) --> the one on picture

My advice to you is to find out the list prices. Then you shop. Like I stated in another post in this forum, a smart customer can find an aggressive shop that should at least get you 20% off of list.

I'd go with the WALD, but I believe the pics you cut & pasted of Lorinser are not on par with the other pics because there is no perspective. I think I saw the FAB design on the Jetson's a couple of episodes back

I would vote but alas... the AMG kit is not an option. I assume because it is not aftermarket it does not qualify. Eventhough it does, however, fall under the guise of a bodykit...
I saw a FAB design car at BHMB a while back when the W211 first came to the states, I have to admit that it would not be my first choice.

I like the regular Lorinser front and rear bumpers, but the side sills and fenders are too much for me. I wonder if the car would look good without any additional side sills, but I guess it wouldn't look all that cohesive. The F01....I don't like at all, save for the grill, but you can get a similar one elsewhere
I'm not a fan of the double fog lights on the Brabus kit. if it had just a single big fog light housing per side, I think it would be a lot better. Of course, it wouldn't be anywhere near as distinctive if it did.
The Wald doesn't really do enough to make it worthwhile, imo. It's just a bolt-on lip spoiler and not a new bumper, correct?
The Carlsson is nice, but it seems to me they just took the E55 bumper, put in the E320 fogs, and painted the mesh to make it stand out. Perhaps they did more than just that, but I can't see it. If you want the AMG look, I think the Carlsson is the closest you'll get if you didn't order the AMG package.
The Kleemann might be the best total package, but I can't really tell from the tiny pictures on their site. Are those holes next to the fogs are just holes or do they actually house something? I really like the rear, though.
The FAB Design is just...too much.
