Pulled the trigger

On a Carbon front splitter from Neil at EuroTech. He is shipping it today and I will post pics.
In 4 weeks we get the Carbon Diffuser..
Now if only someone would make me a carbon E63 knockoff rear wing.
Is this install easy on this part?

Not too bad, much easier on a lift, or with the bumper off... Just drill about 10 pilot holes, then attach with the supplied screws.. Great piece.. Cant wait to get my diffuser..

Which diffuser are you referring to? I'm about to get a Vorsteiner but if there's something better coming out, I would reconsider.

Oh..well I guess I'm going to hold off on the diffuser then. I love the CLK black diffuser. I just hope that it doesn't look cheesy...

AMG needs to copy Audi offerings
aka S-package for S4, nice vents, carbon wing, etc. etc.

all these pieces only stock on black series would be nice for purchase for other "lesser" models...

Porsche has some good factory after market as well.
I used all original RS body parts on my GT3.
AMG does not offer much for the sport enthusiast.
The offer mainly AMG parts for cars that are non AMG, they really don't do us any good because we already have the friken parts.
The cool thing is guys like Euroteck and Evosport can make parts for us and we can pay our friends for quality custom parts and not the stealer for overpriced factory bland products.
