Looking at getting a mold made for DTM replica body kit. Will include front and rear bumpers, front and rear flares/fenders, rear wing, side skirts. Estimated cost will be between 3 & 5k, any interest?

hmmmmm
interesting....what material are you planning on going with?
W201's: 87 2.3-16 mosselman turbo, 89 2.5-16, 93 AMG 3.2, 93 1.8, 93 2.3 8v sportline x2
W202's: 97 c23T, 98 C23K, 98 C230K, 98(2JZ), 2000 AMG
W203: 02 C32 AMG
How close to the actual DTM car will your kit be? I am about to start cutting my c230 up and replicate the DTM D2 Privat car of Schneiders only with a LS2/T56 drivetrain.
sweet man. keep up posted on how it goes.
Completely mad.
'99 C230K, intake and exhaust more on the way.
'86 MKIV Escort RS Turbo, stock for now, chip and more boost on the way
'75 Fiat 124 Spider, koni shocks, bigger carb and drilled/slotted brakes
to tune and hoon the mbz master race.
Was just going to use fibreglass as i plan on tracking the car, so smashed panels will come quite often. fuck replacing CF every second week (prob do rear wing, bonnet and boot in CF)
I wont be doing it myself, having a shop look into it when i get back form Europe, which is in two months. But hopefully they'll let me help out on my off days (I'm working shift)
It will be costing me about $10k for the first one, so i was thinking of making a few more while the moulds will be there...
That'd be awesome. I'm sure your aware that its just been rebuilt yeah?Originally Posted by Jarhead
The Privat car would be the model on which it'll be base (although they're all virtually identical), think ill get an alternative front bumper made for the street too

what will this include? im guessing, bumpers, side skirts, fenders, wing? if the price is stupid i would be interesting in getting one. I was thinking of doing a sort of pseudo-black series and the dtm would work.

How much would shipping it to the west coast of USA add?
Ive been seeing this in Mbworld and here a couple times pop up im not sure haven't tried to contact them due to me thinking its goddy as heck, but this is a site that produces the bodykit its manufactured by Prestige and is called the Prestige DTM Look Body Kit).

Agreed, you need the go before the show. but anyone who wanted to do a balls to the wall build who already has a v8 swapped in or has a turbo then this kit would be a good compliment. something like like a poor man's clk dtm.

You've got to be alittle careful with flared gaurds and widebodys,Im sure you've all seen the fails!.
Each to there own ,just try not to loose some of the key lines which make the 202 such a nice shape!.
This is debatable..

Can't get em in the US, for now anyways. They will be import exempt in a few years.

I was gutted when I didnt see an evo1 in the mercedes museum, I walked outside and gazed into the employee carpark,at first I thought ..that looks like a regular cossy..but as i got closer I just had put the omg face on.... Thanks to that guy the trip was well worth it!.
They are exempt here for two reasons, for being made in LHD only, and they are over 20 years only. I believe a collector here has one but its only a rumour.
I'd possibly prefer a tidy 16v 2.5 with an evo 1 kit ( so its RHD) at least I wouldnt feel guilty modifing it ^^.

I'll never get why they didn't originally send some of these to the US (the Evo). I'd love that thing.
