Front bumper CLK55 v CLK63

bennyboyc · 09-07-2011, 01:02 PM

Hi, am I right that the 63 front bumper is a bit deeper than that of the 55? I assume the 63 bumper would still fit a 55 though? Thanks!

The 63 bumper (non BS) is the same as the face lift 500 ('06) and 550 (07-09) but it has the side vents. Other than that, I don't think there are any dimensional changes whatsoever. Check the 209 thread, a few guys have done the update/conversion. And yes, you can definitely get it on your 55.

I meant to write bs(black series) sorry. I've seen some for sale and was wondering if it would work without major modifications.
