Hey Gary. Sent you an email regarding the CF side extensions. I'm thinking I may just get the entire kit from you plus the lip and sides. Shoot me over the finally tally shipped to 94555 when you get the chance. Thank brotha
Just wanted to take the time to thank Gary and his team for his awesome customer service. Ran into some shipping issues with my body shop and the carrier, but Gary was super quick to resolve the matter. On top of that the front end has a considerable crack down he center if the lower fascia which I brought up to Gary and again he compensated me a very fair amount which was paid to the shop for it to be repaired. Needless to say I am thrilled with the entire experience purchasing from Gary. Had we not had that shipping debacle I would have had the items delivered in less than 3 days! Quality and fitment is pretty good, but the key to a good and long lasting business is how you take care of your customers not just when they re checking out, but during the entire process.
I purchased the entire E63 body kit and front lip. Was on the fence about the side skirt extensions and rear diffuser but I think Imma pull the trigger considering how well this first purchase went. You da man Gary. Ring me up for the other 2 pieces!
Hi everyone, I bought an E350 at the end of last year (Japanese import), from the pictures I see on here, I'm guessing it had the front bumper converted to the E63 bumper, but I had a bit of an incident... Since I was still not quite used to how much the car rolls forward after putting on the parking brake while on a slope, I accidentally rolled into the curb and broke the splitter/lip spoiler as well as the lower lip of the bumper. So I took the car to the panel beaters, and they said they would order the parts from Germany and give me a call when they get the part in.
Unfortunately, after issues with shipping caused the part to come 2 months later, the bumper they received was completely different.. The attachments were all different or something, and they had no idea what style my bumper was, so they ended up just taking off my bumper to get it fixed up, and these are the panel beaters recommended by the mercedes dealership! Not too sure what happened as I wasn't the one who took the car in and didn't see the bumper they ordered.. Maybe they just felt it would be simpler to fix the original on up instead of re-ordering it, I don't know..
Anyway, what I'd like to ask is:
- is the style of my bumper the same as the ones on w211 E63s,
- are you able to attach an OEM w211 E63 bumper to an E350, or are there different attachments (probably why they decided to just fix my original bumper), and
- if I ever damage my bumper again, would I be able to order a replacement that fits my 2005 E350 from here, or direct the panel beaters in the right direction? I live in New Zealand.
Also, just wondering if you guys could recommend a flat hood ornament conversion, as I see a bunch on eBay, but hear that sometimes they don't last very long.
To answer your question, yes it will work (and fit perfectly). I would recommend reading through this ENTIRE thread (from page one) and you will find everything you need. And working with Gary is great, so I say you should definitely do this.
Gary - I got my bumper and side skirts installed a little over a week ago, and it looks AMAZING! It took a couple hours making sure the fitment was perfect with even gapping (I'm a perfectionist), but I think it turned out great! thank you!
however, I was very confused with the tabs on the foglight trim, and accidentally broke the trim when I was cutting the tab off (It wouldn't fit otherwise!). Do you happen to have any lying around? Also, are you able to source a rear bumper? I have an 03 e320 that doesn't have exhaust cut-outs... and figured instead of cutting or buying used, I could get one from you if available. Let me know!
The car looks amazing. Please email me about your concerns and needs. I just got back from oversea. I am having some jetlag, it might take me a day or 2 to get back to you. Thanks.
I had a minor accident resulting in the need for a new bumper, grill & hood.
Can anyone tell me how much ground clearance I'll lose when I swap to the Suvneer E63 front bumper + lower lip spoiler?
We just got 9" of snow in Detroit so losing a couple inches might be an issue.
in STAR code the Central Gateway to ROW (Rest of the world)
I realize this is an old post but hopefully it can help someone else in the future researching this. I confirm that this change does work correctly, although not cheap. However it is a proper fix and not a work around.
Curious if the ROW fix changes other settings.
MB dealer had my W211 for the fuel tank replacement. I offered them $50 to change the coding. I just received a voicemail saying the car is done but they noted the ROW "changed everything, not just the front lights". Curious if anyone knows what "everything else is?
They've already closed for the day. Hoping to get an idea what I might be dealing with ahead of time.
