Mercedes-Benz AMG CLA C118 (2019+) Prepreg Dry Carbon Fiber Front Lip

Designed for Mercedes-Benz AMG CLA C118 second-generation (2019+) owners, this Prepreg Dry Carbon Fiber Front Lip is a carbon splitter mounted to the lower edge of the front bumper — visually lowering the front profile, adding aggressive CLA45 S AMG character, and providing a marginal aerodynamic contribution at speed. Manufactured in Europe and quality-controlled by BYC Performance, this CLA C118 carbon front lip fits OEM mounting points directly.

The front lip visually lowers and adds stance to the compact sedan's front profile. Aerodynamically, it redirects front-axle airflow at speed and contributes to front downforce on track days.

Key Features

• Prepreg Dry Carbon Technology: Autoclave-cured under high heat and pressure; uniform resin, a more consistent weave.
• AMG-Inspired Geometry: Inspired by the CLA45 S AMG's aggressive front-lip / splitter design.
• Aero + Stance: Marginal high-speed front downforce + visually lowered front end.
• Direct OEM Fit: Bolts directly to the CLA C118 (2019+) front bumper lower edge, no cutting.
• 2x2 Twill Carbon Weave: Under high-gloss UV-protective resin.
• High Strength: Carbon fiber resists stone chips and light curb contact.
• UV & Chemical Protection: Long-life clear coat against fading and cracking.

Prepreg Dry Carbon vs. Wet Carbon

Prepreg carbon is autoclave-cured under heat and pressure, a more consistent weave, a controlled resin ratio, noticeably lighter. The production method widely chosen in motorsport.
