i think the OP has lost that middle body part and posting an older pic.
BTW, if you dont mind, show a pic with it off!lol I always kind of thought the car would look better without it

Mine was damaged too a month ago when someone backed into me. The body shop person took care of it and replaced it so it's definitely a separate part you can buy however maybe not new but from a junkyard/used car lot.
Sorry I have no part number.
P.S. Make sure the temperature sensor gets reattached correctly. Mine was not and it cause erroneous readings.

Correct if I am wrong but if believe it's called front bumper center cover w/o AMG. You can buy it for around $200 new from Mercedes OEM part websites like parts.com
the part number is 20988500221693

Are you talking about the "protective strip" that covers that area of the bumper? I have searched EPC and cannot find them as separate parts for the W209. Ironically, I can find then for the W203, W211 and others. I know they are specific to the W209, but they are similar enough to the other models that one would think they would also be available for the W209.

I think I know why I can't find a part number for those bumper "rub strips". I removed the bumper on my CLK today (I'm having a local body shop repaint it as it's all chipped from rock when I worked in an industrial area). Anyhow, I was removing all the trim and I discovered that these rub strips, at least on my AMG Sport bumper, are just molded into the bumper itself and not a removable part as on the W203.
