turns out the winner was a scammer who hacked into another user name. he was high bidder on 30K worth of auctions. Ebay nullified all the effected auctions. the seller relisted and I mailed him my offer and since I was the high bidder beside the scammer we worked out a deal. I should get the spoiler in a week or two depending on shipping. it is still going to be a while before copies are available, but that is my intention in the future. will post progress as it happens

i need to see the part first to gage the complexity of the tool. Its been about 10 years since I have built a tool and I dont have a feel for current costs. This is going to take a while since it is a private effort. I will post progress when there is some. it might be that I can make fiberglass parts sooner, but that is not the ultimate goal, at least for the front.

Put me on the list



I found a 450SLC in the yard here and it had a front spoiler like that but no AMG markings anywhere.. they wouldn't let me pull anything off it since she(owner of the junk yard) wanted to sell it as a whole.. I offered 100$ for the lights and could have gotten an easy $500 for them from the SLC guys

keep us updated. is that the spoiler for the C123, W123 or T123?

You do need EURO BUMPERS THOUGH, otherwise it will not fit.

The AMG Spoiler will not fit US DOT bumpers.

boardmonger has an AMG one for US bumpers though I'm sure he'd love to get rid of...

either way.. I want one.. a narrow FMIC would work well under the front bumper and with the AMG bumper to hid the plumbing it would be nice
