Best bodykit for SLK-Pics+links requested
Hi all!!
I want to make some changes on my SLK 200 Kompressor and i decided to buy a bodykit.I know the products of Lorinser , AMG , Carlsson and Rieger.
Do you know any other tuning companies producing bodykit for SLK.? Btw Rieger seemed ok for me(great sideskirts and front part) except the rear part which looks cheap and exagerrated so i still keep on searching.
AMG bodykit is the one i wish to get but instead of buying that one , i can spend that amount of money for the modification of the engine.So the question appears in my mind if it is possible to find the replica of AMG bodykit design
Maybe it sounds odd but here in my country there are many perfect replicas of Schnitzer for BMW , Hamann.(even there is the stamped brandname on the product with production number code -)There are lots of BMW owners compared to MB.The older generation prefers benz S & E class - i am only 29 - so as a result of that there isnt much SLK around which means less accesories for the car.(Original parts like exhaust systems -ex:AMG - are much more cheaper here compared to States, i checked your prices, even second hand ones.Someone asks $500 for his used AMG exterior exhaust part.Here i found a brandnew one around 250 - 300$ ...Probably East europe has more advantages than United States in trading , exp - imp these parts.
So to sum it up
I need
1 - Bodykit -contacts - other than lorinser - rieger - Carlsson-Amg
2 - If there is a similar or replica production of AMG Bodykit i would like to get the adress & fax (if its something illegal forget it)
3 - Rieger bodykit seemed the best for me except the rear..so if i buy the Rieger bodykit without the rear , what can i use instead of that brand.
(my english sometimes sucks, sorry about that)
Thanks for your interest ..
Hope to hear good news from you

There are a couple of websites you may wish to check out. There you should find the details you seek. I can only remember
performanceproducts.com
clairparts.com
but...check out the sponsors on this website and you can find a whole bunch of them. Hope this helps.

You might also try Wald (http://www.waldusa.com/grosser.html).
They don't look too bad , but they do cost $$$$.
