C/F front lip

Just noticed in this video the Euro S63 is sporting a Carbon Fiber lip. Why didn't that make it to the US market? Optional ??

Lower Side Body Rails appear to be carbon as well... I am not aware of a Carbon Option for US...

The exterior CF package is an available option for Cdn spec'ed models. Comes with CF cross-strut in front apron, exterior mirror housings, side sill panel inserts, and rear apron insert.

I'd be surprised if it wasn't available in the US. Do you have access to a US DOG?

This accessory is likely part of Exterior Carbon Fiber Package (code 773). It is available in the US as confirmed by the latest DOG (which is just a cool name for the "Dealer Ordering Guide")

Package 773 comes with exterior carbon fiber trim elements, such as the inserts in the front and rear aprons, side skirts and exterior mirror housings.
