Putting in New Lorinser F1 Body kit OPINIONS NEEDED??

Hey guy i just Received my Lorinser Front F1 bumper, Lorinser F1 sideskirts and the Lorinser Dtm"edition" rear bumper which i like better then the f1 bumper.


I Have the Mesh for the whole Kit but i dont know which color to use for the Mesh.


My Car is Black so i was thinking of going with the silver Mesh but i dont wanna have to much of a Ricer look

Do you guys think I should Do like High Gloss Black for the Mesh??, or do Electro Polished Stainless Steel??

just came to a conclusion... the body kit already comes with the silver mesh presinstalled and the silver mesh looks so sweet with the black bumper.


i will post pics later of the kit....im gonna have to go with the silver mesh because it looks better plus i bought the lorinser kit to be seen not to be hidden.

OR SHOULD I GET RID OF MY CUSTOM 4 PIPE EXHAUST AND THE "LORINSER EDITION BUMPER"

AND GO FOR THE LORINSER F1 REAR BUMPER WITH THE LORINSER F1 DUAL EXHAUST??

I think the lorinser bumper is begging for a different tip design. Maybe dual tips or a differently shaped tips like w221 or Maybach?

im gonna go with the silver mesh throughout the whole kit because it accentuates my black paint.


if i go black on black itll be harder to see the kit..then whats the point if i spent all that money for it to be blacked out, since i want it to flashy.

It wont fit an 02.

You can fit the bumper and side skirts, but forget about the front because of the facelift hood etc.

2006 E350 -w211
Question Where did you get the fog light

Hello S5LorinserF1,

I love the work you did on your car. It inspired me to put a F1 kit on my 2006 E350 w211. Its in the shop now being installed. I need your help with the fog light. Where did you get the 3" round fog light and how did you install it? did it give you any computer error codes? I really hope you can help me as I'm stuck now and I'm worried about the fog light and issues that might come up with the error codes. Thanks for all the help.

regarding the f1 bumper and foglights.

Do not have them installed wiht your factory foglights.


Make them separte which is 100 time better.


just bring it to a good car audio or electronitc shop and have them put the new foglights in and just run a separte wire to a flip switch under the dashboard.


thats how i did it and it the best way because you can put your lights on either just by themselves, with the regular carlights or however you like.


contact lorinser of canada and you can get them for a good deal.
