Just thought I'd pass along some info from my CLA45 build. The carbon fiber trim option mentioned in many of the videos appears to be priced out at $2,850. The code is H73.

I've been debating keeping this option, all I really want is the front lip and rear diffuser. Anybody have any idea if merc usually sells individual parts of packages after release? Or how long it takes for aftermarket parts to start getting made for new models?

i predict aftermarket versions will be out by the end of 2013! even for the amg! the cla is already in lots of hands and the first "molds" are probably already being made lol

heres some current c class carbon parts and prices:

Mercedes Benz W204 C63 Carbon Fiber Rear Diffuser

Euroteck Motorsports Inc. -- W204 C-Class

Mercedes Benz DTM Style CF Carbon Fiber Diffuser For C300/C350/C63

ARKYM Aerosport Mercedes Rear Diffuser C63 AMG

Mercedes Benz Carbon Fiber Front Lip - W204 C63 AMG

----

for the CLA i predict the front lip prices will be ~500 .. rear diffuser ~500 . . . some places may even make the carbon sideskirts lol . .

I've heard that the price of the carbon fiber package you're referencing is for the interior only. My dealer thought it might include the exterior bits but evidently there are trim packages in Europe for the CLA models (eg, nightshade package?) that cover the external bits. At this point, my biggest question stems from this issue...what the heck is included in the base CLA45 and what does the options list look like?! I just cant seem to get a consistent answer. I know, patience is a virtue, but enquiring minds still want to know.

The CLA45 AMG is still a ways out so just hang in there guys. I'm sure the answers will come once the release gets closer

The more I read the more I'm also confused about what's included in the AMG CLA.

do you think that they will have an Aftermarket Dash for INTERIOR? its 2500+13% tax here in Ontario, Canada. On the high side.....but looks so sick. I also don't mind the included Aluminum Dash at all....which makes it hard to justify 3000$ almost on a ....piece of carbon fibre that might really just be ....plastic? lol

 

[C45]

these guys can carbon anything you send them - oCarbon - carbon fiber products

6 pieces on a new a4 is 600 bucks

maybe a group buy would be in order (ill set it up in march) :big smile:

Shattering a carbon fiber lip will definitely ruin more than a weekend if you accidently scrape it.
I am going to try vinyl carbon fiber covering it. It is just for aesthetics any how.

I think the vinyl starts pretty cheap and the pieces appear fairly easy to get to.
