'19 G63 Ed 1,'18 M5, '16 G63,'12 458 , '11 E63, Brabus SL55-K8, '10 S63, '94 E500 "Wolf", '91 560SEC

Just browsing the FL website, it shows the price for the front bumper w/ grilles to be $1350, and $959 for the rear bumper cover. Can't find the part number for the side skirts. But those prices seem a little more realistic.

I think the 2003+ AMG body kit on the S-Class is the way to go!

You may have to find the part numbers, but it is worth a try. Those prices are outrageous. Worst case you may have to piece a kit together, by looking on ebay or try this site as well www.car-part.com

I called, and all parts totaled around $3900.00. Were getting better!

Yes you just need to get a 03 hood and grill. Along with 03 sensors and chrome moldings if the kit doesn't come with it.

Too bad you don't live in Hawaii. I have a complete 03 S55 kit with sensors and molding just sitting around.

What do you want for it? Shipping would be a pain, wouldn't it!

I would sell it for $1200 but I have no idea how I would ship it and how much that would cost.

What condition is it in? Also, what color, though that doesn't really matter. I will check on shipping costs and give you pm later this week.

I highly recommend the AMG Body Kit. I have one on my S430, no regrets with selecting an S-Class with the AMG Body Kit. Please take time to shop around, several body kits on the market, just don't get a cheap one.
