I got mine from Neal at http://www.euroteckmotorsports.com, some other members got theirs at http://www.salvatoremotorsports.com, good luck in your search, there's also a few more places that you can get them from.

Thanks for the links Ynot!

I have a question though: On the catalog, Brabus lists 2 different sets of springs and suspensions for the SLK. One set for the SLK200K and another for the 350 and 55. Will neither fit well on the SLK280?

Also, is it really worth spending extra money on a full sports suspension kit or will springs alone on OEM shocks be sufficient for a good ride for a daily driven car?

Just get the springs they will make the slk handle better, though regarding the 280 it was released in 06 so which makes the brabus brochure not upto date, for example the SLK55 springs fit the 200,280,350 so I am sure the brabus springs on euroteck would fit any SLK.

The SLK55 and 350 ones will fit the 280.

It depends, the springs basically lowers your SLK by an inch and keep OEM ride, the full suspension allows you to adjust height, dampers to your preference.
