Tired of my stock body kit (front bumper, sideskirts and rear bumper) I'm wondering to update to an AMG pack or similar for these parts in Europe to get a sport look for my car ('03 S320 CDI SWB). I'm restyling the car little by little buying parts in eBay (headlights, tailights, grill, rims, steering wheel, spoilers, etc) and I want to reach another level getting a body kit.
I realized that USA owners, unlike european, have the possibility to access a broad market for parts greater than the country/continent where the car is manufacturated (¿?).
Well, I've been searching the internet to finally take to NEODESIGN (http://www.neodesignshop.eu/product_...roducts_id/489).
This complete body kit includes front and rear bumper and sideskirts, just what I'm looking for. Personally, I think this body kit is a step beyond AMG kit (a new look not as seen). They call 'SULTAN' to all three parts and they give you the option to upgrade the front bumper to 'SULTAN 2' (a new model).
I have contacted them and price includes shipping cost in european region countries. Getting a body kit from USA to Europe costs an arm and a leg. I imagine that will be the same upside down.
I have not found any real photo or video in internet and therefore not seen installed.
The only thing I have found are these attached images.
If anyone knows anything about these parts, please let me know

Speaking from experience I wouldn't dive into this until I can find actual pictures of the kit on another car. Nothing CGI'ed/Photoshopped will ever look remotely similar to the real thing.

So before you pull the trigger maybe ask the manufacture to send you actual pictures or something since you've contacted them before anyways!

Good luck and keep us updated

WERD. I've seen a turd photoshopped to look good. A CGI rendering will never look the same as on the car. If there aren't examples of other cars out there with this kit, I DEFINITELY wouldn't be the first person to buy it.

A load of rubbish as usual.

Thank you for your comments.
I don't want to be the first installing these parts and that's the reason why I started this thread. As I haven't seen any real installation, I don't want to be the first on it.
Something similar happened to me when I decided installing an aftermarket HID+LED projector headlights. I updated my headlights and I'm not very convinced with them (see thread ' Like These Lights?').

Contacted to manufacturer but unanswered for a month (¿?).
For now I leave it be until I have something clear.

Hi again. Found new pics on the web page www.ebay.de.
In my opinion the rear bumper looks good, much more design with diffuser than the AMG one from my particular point of view.
I think the side skirts stand out too much of the bodywork. In this case I think the AMG ones are more appropiate for the S-Class (not so tuning look).
The two front bumper models (sultan and sultan2) bring something different compared to AMG. Maybe too low for the speed bumps in the city and for the side of the street to enter my garage.

looks silly, its too wide, too angular compared to the rounded w220 body lines, etc.
AMG , WALD or Lorinser is far bette looking than this

One dealer in Connecticut. He says he will let me know if he can get it next week some time... shady. I really like the kit. Time for a fresh look for this car, also i think it will look best in black. Anyone have any reliable leads as how to purchase?

Try to purchase directly in the manufacturer web or contact them. Go to http://www.neodesignshop.eu/index.php/language/en (english version web).
Or you can try to purchase in http://www.ebay.de (Mercedes S Klasse W220 Spoiler Set Body Kit Tuning neu).
Keep us updated if you finally get something

The end.
Yes, I think I'm not gonna spend more time with this. And it has nothing to do whether or not this body kit like.
Nor sellers, neither dealers, not even the manufacturer (they don't answer my emails) can provide a real photo of any part offered for sale.
How is this possible? I can't imagine why a manufacturer invests time and money to get a product for sale and doesn't want to sell it or facilitate its distribution. Sorry, but I don't understand at all.
Well, it's just a matter of curiosity. There are thousand of CGI'ed/Photoshopped through internet, but no actual image.
Does anyone know a serious seller o dealer in Europe to provide an AMG or any other body kit (sideskirts and front & rear bumper) for a W220???
Any information would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.
