Thank you.

How much does the kit cost?

SpiritR230

$20K plus $290 shipping. I saw this on Ebay

Ekselent

Yes... I bought it from Ebay auction.... Guess what???.... I won the bid and it cost approx 4000 D to me.
I'm gone install it by my self.

Here you can see another pictures about the kit.
One picture is an CL Black edition.

I have bought last year from Prior an SL63 AMG facelift version with SL65 AMG Black series hood. The fitment was 95%. Not 100%. I took a risk and paint al parts first and after that I install everything. I trust at the dealer when he told me the fitment is good..

So it cost me only 3900 D incl the freight costs and I think I have the whole kit here in two weeks from Germany.

Any info about the widebody wheel specs??? Or is't a secret?

Email Prior design, they should have that information. How much is 3900D in US dollar terms?

Ekselent

I have already e-mail them but they don't give the ET size at all.... It's DPE secret..... I CANNOT UNDERSTAND AT ALL why they don't give "us" the info.
If I'm gone order/buy something then I really want to now what I paid for.
So no DPE wheels to me. (I'm not even gone thinking about their wheels because this "Mystery"). I'm gone measure it myself and give this info to everyone.
Only info they gave me was the size.
- Front 10*20" ET??? ( I think ET5 is nearly the correct size)
- Rear 12*20" ET?? ( I think ET10 is nearly the correct size)


3900D... D=US dollars.
The price was very good.... it actually cost nearly 20 000 US and with exactly same parts.

That is ridiculous. I cant see why you cant take some measurements. Try and PM Thericker, he has the Misha kit. Am I understanding this correctly, you paid 3900 US for a black series kit from Prior design?

Ekselent

Yes exactly include the freight costs.

kustom2k1

Considering the hood alone is 3k, then you got the deal of a lifetime.

Ekselent

Regarding my ET questions ... It help me a lot when I have a "start" point to calculate it before I measure it. I can also put on an another wheel to measure and calculate it.....Normally the wheel dealer give you some ET and from that you can calculate -3<-->5 of...then you have a "flush ET" wheel setup.

Ekselent

Yes... thats true. As I mention before ... it was an Ebay auction and sometimes you can made a very good deals there.

No offense, but I am having a hard time understanding this, so , basicly, you want to know the stock offsets (ET) for a AMG black series, right? OK, the wheel size for the black series are 19x9.5 ET36 front and 20x11.5 ET57 rear, good luck~

Ekselent

THank you...
This help me a lot.
For example at the rear 20*11,5 ET 57. If I want wider wheel for example 12" then the wheel is going to be wider 6mm at each side from the middle. If I want the wheel position be the same as the 11,5 ET57. I must add 6mm at OEM ET 57 . ET57+ET 6=ET63.
AMG OEM Ofset is normaly way to "big" so I think I can go down at least 10-15 mm and it don't hit the fender. So 12*20" ET63 - 10mm = ET 53 - ET 48 would be the start point.

So now I know something what is going on...

Thank you.
