Some quick and dirty pics... did not have time to detail or find good lighting/good composition, but the car is now finally DONE. (4 months for those custom plates...)

How does the renntech front carbon fit? Any gaps? Do you know what bumper modifications were required?

Fits great. Lots of cutting, I left it to the pros. Also, the rear diffuser blocks the kick trunk opener (not that it ever worked reliably in the first place, so I don't really care).

Thanks for the info. With that info, I guess there is no way of going back to OEM after installing.

Metro Auto Rebuild - across the street from Mercedes of Seattle. They are an authorized MB and BMW shop. I had my BMW repaired there and they do amazing work.

Best body shop in Seattle, and I have used many.

Your wagon looks awesome! I am seriously considering the rear wing for our wagon. Any chance of getting some close up of the weave? Trying to picture what it would look like on the Matte black wagon. Also do you notice any buffeting, whistle, or other noise at high-way speed?

Interesting, I had a car stuck with them for over 2 months for a door replacement which MB had in stock....and when I got the car back the gaps were all wrong.

Love the wagon man!!

How long did it take to get the Renntech parts installed? I might do this on my 2016 E63S.

Thank you for the kind words. It took my shop a day to install this kit. Not sure how many hours. Do get a professional help. Some cutting of OEM parts will be required to install it correctly. Do not use the double sided tape.

Yes, this is one mod that's definitely not DIY... experienced shop labor is absolutely worth it for installing this kit.

You can order all carbon fiber aero products through us directly or one of our Dealers. For the E63 carbon fiber aero, we recommend installation with an experienced dealer. If you provide us your location, we can get you in contact with the best dealer closest to you and the RENNtech Rep there.
