Please share any information regarding the kit. I would purchase from you, since I'm in Japan. Let me know your thoughts and thanks.

I bought the bodykit, grille, facelift mirrors and taillights from Cargym. They are all aftermarket. Quality is good, fitment was fine and the bodykit is plastic not fiberglass

I'm waiting for replica headlights to come out then the conversion will be complete the oem ones are too expensive and not worth it IMO

I bought this kit from Cargym and since they are local to me in hong kong I don't need to pay shipping and the price is pretty cheap. You can contact them regarding shipping to Japan but from what other members said their shipping is quite expensive.

Nice photos! thanks for sharing..It looks really really good!

Questions:

YOu said fit is good? Is it perfect, any issues even minor?

That quad exhaust tips, is that a full amg exhaust or just the tips? I know cargym has tips like that for the E class on their site.

Thanks!

Cool. Just like I will do on my W221 project. In the pics it looks like kind of a big gap where the hood meets the bumper in front next to the grill? Is this bigger than original or just look so on the pics?

If this was my car, I would not be happy at all with the fitment and make the shop fix it if they can or get a better quality cover. For example, look at the increasing width of the gap between the bottom of the headlights to the cover. Right next to that is the HUGE gap between hood and bumper cover (between the headlights and the grill). That gap looks to be close to 2 inches wide!!! Lastly, the monster gap between the bottom of the grill to the top of the cover. It looks like the hood is not closed all the way.

But this is not my car, it's yours, and if you are happy with the fit and finish of the cover, then that is all that matters.

the grille gap is because I didn't install the facelift grille yet, now there is no gap
