lorinser f01 kit..
Has anyone installed this new kit on their s-class? An associate of mine has one on his CL, I fell in love and purchased one for my w220 from eBay. I have yet to see this kit on a car on the road.

the Lorinser body kits. I also saw some on ebay, but they're replicas and fiberglass-which I don't mind. I wonder if you have ordered the same one and if there's any fitment issues. When are you suppose to get the kit? Can anyone enlightened on this?

The kit hasn’t been installed yet, but my body shop who put the AMG kit on says so far it looks good. The kit is Polyurethane an option you can’t get with Lorinser.
below are some shots of the car.

Do you meen the Lorinser F1 fenders? You don't meen your going to swap out your AMG kit? The AMG KIT would look awesome w/F1 fenders!
I also have seen CL 03'-04 black AMG w/F1 fenders, I go thru LA a few times a month for work, and have spotted this CL in the Topanga cyn area... It's baaddddd....

My body shop is now fusing my Lorinser dtm front bumper (fiberglass) which arrived damaged. I bought it from Adler Performance (Houston) who is a dist. for CEC. I was surprised genuine Lorinser was fiberglass
PS: how much did you sell your Lorinser exhaust for?

Please correct, but the original FULL Lorinser kit (including fenders) is Fiberglass
? I thought they were polyU, at least the bumpers?
If So has anyone bought the one from ebay for around 2k including the fenders?
Please enlighten.
Quick, how is your car coming along?

Lorinser site indicates PUR-RIM polyu but you might want to check with CEC to confirm on the fenders, etc. My side skirts are PUR-RIM but unless someone swapped out my front bumper- arrived in Lorinser packaging with Hella fogs in tact- it was fglass

Awiner, I agree
That full F1 kit, in my opinion has to be the worst aftermarket kit for mercedes, the only really cool thing is the fenders.
How bout that front bumper it looks like it belongs on another car it doesn't go at all, same w/rear horrible... their older style was much better looks like they tried to make it for a BMW

The F01 Kit I purchased is Polyurethane, I purchased the kit from the same company I purchased my fiberglass OG Lorinser Kit from. Not sure if anyone remembers i was selling the full Lorinser kit off my old car a while back.

Yeah it looks like one of those smaller newer Jags after Ford took it over.

Yo Quick, when you replace your front bumper will you be selling it? I want to give my S a facelift and I need an 03-04 AMG front bumper cover.
NICE RIDE BTW!

Quick no offense if you like the Lorinser, kits each to there own.
My question for you is what year is your car? If it's not 03' on up did your bodyshop retrofit the hood grill area and new signal mirrors? If so What did they charge you? I'm waiting on performanceprod. to send my 03' front AMG bumper to do the same.

The OG Lorinser kit i got off eBay had no problems and the shop that did my install says it was actually better quality of fiberglass then Lorinser.
