guess the AMG spoilers will still be high dollars

well I tried to get this spoiler. I was going to make a fiberglass copy or a vacuum form tool and make them available for a cheaper price. hopefully the guy that bought it is thinking the same, but my guess is it will end up on a shelf not to see the light of day for another dozen years.

if anyone has one they could loan me, I can measure it and create the 3d data for a fairly accurate copy, minus the "AMG" script of course.

I have looked everywhere for even a Zender or Erebuni, but its just been too long.

I may just sculpt one on a clay board from the pictures, then I could leave room for an intercooler too. But it would be nice to have one to measure.

Whoever paid that much is a flat out idiot. You can get it for about half of that shipped from "over there"

give me a source, I bid to 700 because there is none I could find here or on ebay.de. i planned to take measurements, maybe cast a fiberglass mold then resell it for the price it was at when I bid..... $550.

I may have one of the overthere ones. I got a 123 "AMG" lower spoiler off ebay from Thailand but haven't tried fitting it yet. It's a cheap fiberglass knockoff, but with a little work, might come out well.

The guy that was selling it is very nice. I found one in 2003, but I won it in ebay.co.uk but the seller never shipped it. Oh well.

FYI, you need euro bumpers to make this amg spoiler work anyway.

BTW, I have a set for sale!
