I need a bodykit but dunno which one to choose

I like the way AMG bodykit looks but i have problem with the price.I heard that the best price is around $3000 in US
I live in East Europe so do you have any information about the
AMG bodykit prices..I also heard that AMG sells parts only to Benz dealers,is it possible to buy individually?Any contacts?

I searched other brands and some look really terrible.
The best one costs around 1600 Euros.

(*Forget the lorinser i don't like it)

In the US, You can buy "replica" AMG body kits from nrauto. If you are in Eastern Europe, you should have access to many of the german tuning and performance companies (like BRABUS) who make some great enhancements for your SLK.

I'd stay away from the nrauto kit, it is actually a erebuni kit. The fit is terrible, I have it on my car. I bought it with the kit on...

I am still contemplating of getting a new kit to replace it... It bothers me that much!!!

That's funny. There was a guy on here awhile back talking about how he had just installed the Erebuni kit and you couldn't tell the difference from the real kit. He was pissed because nobody believed him. The Erebuni kits are fiberglass and even if they fit when they're new, they are succeptible to warping and cracking over time. They also don't come with fog lamps, which are very expensive to buy from a M-B dealer.

Brian, well, you can't tell... from the side!!!

but the rear bumper is too short and does not cover the car completely, looks about 1" short, and the front, where the hood comes down is about .5" short... i will post some pictures and let you be the judge.
