The boot lid was lacking a spoiler/wing that my previous CLK had and I found one on ebay that was £70 painted and delivered!

All I had to do was to give them my paint code and a couple of weeks later it was here. I didn't get stung for import tax either - result!

The quality is first class, well made and no paint defects.

That looks excellent, toying with the idea for mine, think I would go for gloss black or gloss carbon fibre, mines white.

Both of those would be a good contrast against white. You can get slightly larger carbon fibre rear spoilers too.

Looks great and probably from the same people I got mine from ( box had Ikon motorsport on - from Taiwan)
Not a big deal but you will get a bill separately from DHL probably for the import tax - about £20 iirc - I got the bill both times about 3 weeks later

I tried the link to get one for my "new" purchase (2013 E350 Coupe), but it doesn't look like they do it in Tenorite Grey?? Bought the last one like JL from Ikon. Anyone got a link to them or another supplier that does my colour?

Cheers

Steve

They didn't list my paint code either, so I sent them a message through ebay with my paint code and they replied that they could paint it in that colour. The colour is absolutely spot on.

Is this just stuck on with 3M ?, just wondering about the longevity of this.

Looks great. Looks similar to the one I bought on Ebay. Mine was half the price, but mine was for a different car. I was never sent an import duty bill, thank god.

Both mine have been done with 3M VHB tape
Current one 2 years nearly and solid as the day I did it
Mind you prep is the key, I also used IPA and 3M adhesion accelerator wipes before applying . Must do a tutorial one day- maybe when I do the next one

Ordered on the 13th, arrived on the 17th - colour is as you say spot-on :)

Not good, that's the risk I suppose with international sellers. I bought mine knowing that that was a chance, but mine was about £35.
