    Accident!!!!

    I drive like a freak around center city Philly. I am lucky to get from my house to my store in one piece. I am relieved when I get into my 6 story parking lot safe. Today waiting in single file line of about twenty cars, the lady in front of me decided to reverse for a spot behind her. She forgot to look in her mirror to see me patiently waiting AT A DEAD STOP. She rammed the front of my car at about 8mph, cracking my freshly painted skin. I have never wanted to beat a woman before this day.

    She is insured, so it will be paid for. My question is is there a better or meaner looking bumper then a stock C43. I see alot of people look for a C43 kit during my last search. I just did not see pics of different skins. I am ordering a carbon hood and my car is being supercharged and dropped on Oct. 4. Please any direction would be appreciated. I can or will not drive around with a cracked bumper, the C43 deserves better than that.

    Your car is mean! I want the exact drop you have. What setup do you have, including pads? Anyway is that a Reiger skin or just front spoiler?

    hey, do you have a silver AMG with a roof rack? I was standing on the corner of 22 and Locust and saw one go by with tinted windows.... I'm up there all the time, mostly take my truck cause I won't park my benz on the street, you know how it is.... Sorry to hear about the accident, I lost a door in the city before HA HA. If you decide to replace the whole kit let me know, I'm looking for a C43 kit....

    It's not his car, it's my sister's

    It's got the standard 98+ sport front bumper w/ the Rieger lip. You won't be able to make use of your C43 AMG bumper.

    But I'd do WALD if I were you

    the car is sitting on HR springs and Bilstein Sport shocks and I believe #1 pad all around if I'm not mistaking.

    yeah wald, because your side skirts are very "wavy", the rieger would not look good IMO. The wald has more curves.
