Good lord, man!

Give the man a chance to breathe.

Good lord man....get a sense of humor. It's called playful needling. I think the original poster gets my humor and excitement.

Benz-O-Rama

Hard to tell tone in text sometimes. To me, you sounded like the annoying kid in the back seat..."Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?"

If you were joking, I missed it. No worries. I'd be excited too. Rest assured that Neal produces a fabulous project and the wait, and sometimes unscheduled delays, will be well worth it.

Enjoy.

Are we there yet?






Sorry I couldn't resist.

BlackC230Coupe

To help ease some tension. I decided to post pics! it still needs some small finishing touches, then it will get sprayed with primer once more, then if all is well, we will then start making the mould. Once in carbon, it should look pretty sick!

BlackC230Coupe

Thanks for the kind words, much appreciated.

BlackC230Coupe

One more picture for you guys... I am having the mould started today, then, once the first part is done and test fit, they will all be put into production.

^ Does that make it large enough for the AMG exhaust pipes?

gqa

this is not for the amg bumper only the Sport package bumper with the normal exhaust. Go to the Amg sl forum they have started a group buy for the amg bumper.

Black230coupe- can we start a group buy for the 07-08 front lip spoiler for the AMG/sport front bumper?

BlackC230Coupe

We did not change the exhaust opening size at all. It is the same as stock. So whatever you can fit in your stock bumper, will be the same as with the diffuser.

BlackC230Coupe

I am still not sure if there is that interest for the front lip....But maybe we can try for it when this diffuser is done and all delivered.

jmejones

Excellent pics! And we are almost there:-)

BlackC230Coupe

I'm a bit confused.... We already posted pics or the diffuser on Tuesday... Did you see the above posts?

kkwmjw1

I'd be interested in a front lip spoiler, let's get that started too!

gqa

Ok sounds like a deal. I'm definitely IN and I believe kkwmjw1 is too. That makes 2. Do we need 10 people for a lip spoiler?

Also to be clear its for the front bumper style of my attached pic below

BlackC230Coupe

Yes, 10 people. And yes, that is the newer bumper.

BlackC230Coupe

Just an update, the mould should be done late this week or early next. Then finally we will make 1 carbon part, and have member Carne57 test fit it for us.

jmejones

Is it fair to ask for an update at this point?

BlackC230Coupe

Yes of course! You may ask at any time. The mould has already been completed. The first part is already being made and will be done next week. If all stays on schedule, we will have the first carbon part shipped out to member Carne57 next week for the test fit.

Got back from NYC this morning at 1:30am and walked onto my
Deck and tripped over a big UPS box. I'm thinking yes the diffuser has arrived. Wrong, cushions for my deck chairs. Ahhhhhhh, maybe next time.

BlackC230Coupe

Haha! that is actually quite funny!

Still aiming to have the first carbon part done in a few more days. I would say probably on Friday! stay tuned for pics!

SLorenzo

Friday???............oh yeah......... Can't wait......I wanna start around & showing off my rear diffuser soon before carbon fiber goes out of style.

gqa

blackc230coupe do you want to start the thread on the front lip spoiler now to get the list of members ready so when you're finished this product hopefully we will have enough members to start the process?

BlackC230Coupe

Lets wait till next week on that until we have the diffuser test fit and all is ok. I don't want to have so many things going on at once until I know at least one is good completed sucessfully.

Ok
