Car looks awesome. Is the rear spoiler and front splitter in black gloss?

They are indeed.

 

[Senna11]

They are indeed.

Would you be able to confirm how many fixings are used under your front splitter? Trying to organise a retro fit of this part and none in stock at the moment and it doesn't come with instructions either. Mercedes won't give the part part number for some unknown reason although they will sell it to me?! Better still, some pictures underneath your front splitter would be great. Anyway no worries if this causes a problem.

I have had to replace mine as it got damaged by something I hit, local dealer couldn't find any stock in the UK earlier this year but I got the OEM replacement here

Not the cheapest part for what it is but the local dealer quoted me about £400 just to replace the middle part so I sorted it myself.
I have the original parts so will sort out some photos so you can see what the bits look like.

Thanks, that’s super helpful. I was looking at the same part today as it ties in with the black gloss diffuser otherwise it would have to be carbon all round. It did mention the part needs to be coded but didn’t know why.
Did you fit the part yourself? An Indy has quoted me £65 to fit. Seems to be a lot of holes to be drilled.

Fitted it myself, wasn't very difficult as it comes in 3 pieces. The screws are Torx, only fiddly parts were the 2 sides as I didn't want to remove the wheels. I suspect the reason why there are so many screws is that it needs to be tightly fitted for it to survive high speeds.
It requiring coding seems nonsense as it isn't an electronic part, just an expensive piece of plastic (which looks nice!)

Brilliant. Thanks for this. So are the screws self tappers?

Not Torx as I thought, just standard Philips and not self tappers.

Apologies for another question but do these need bolts then? I’m assuming screw through part and bottom of bumper and then bolt? Same for the piece at the side before front wheels?

Very nice, wicked colour

No bolts, screws into part above it - all the screws are the same but lots of them.
