I have tried to find a bodyshop willing to do the front bumper modification but no one wants to do it because "cracking will always result"? Have you had any cracking issues or any other issues with the bumper mod after 1 year?

Super job on the white W220! I have one myself and want to adopt a couple of your mods.

Are you going to make a custom w221 style AMG front bumper or go stock?

Bumper update

I got two bumpers from ebay. Cut the stock one at the parting line(threw out the bottom) The other one used the stock parting line again(threw out the top). I welded these using a plastic welding system. Got to figure a way to join these. I dont know what to use

The Passenger lite cover was yellow. Bought an 06 set(took them apart). Installed switchbacks, painted the background black(put them back together) , installed in car. The lights dont work, put the old ones back (they work). I noticed the new set has two plugs per light (the old ones had one plug per light) Any ideas?

Your in LI? LOL I may see you around. Xenons you can tell by the bulb. It looks like this guy may have switched the headlight on you. Look at the first photos notice the projectors? They look OEM. Now look at the photo you took, the projector is strange.
