Body kit identification plz

Am I right in assuming this is just a straight 16v bodykit on an 8v?
I need to replace the front as its damaged and want to make sure i get the right one.
Payed 800 for this car

Not Sure where to start but for now with summer half over and this going to be my daily car Ill start with the interior. Dash being forst as its cracked, then seats and door panels/rug.

Not a 16V kit. Besides the spoiler the rest looks like an AMG replica kit (2nd gen?).
And as for the other question could you start by telling us if its a 2.3 or 2.6?

Yeah it's an 8v . thats why I asked if it was a 16v bodykit on an 8v body. to me the spoiler looks like 16v spoiler. So AMG aftermarket eh? I think it looks pretty decent. But I'd definitely like a widebody fender kit to go with. I dont think the front is worth fixing. maybe easier to find out what kind of kit it was and replace the front fascia.

Not a 16V and not an AMG replica.

Possibly a Zender, later model (fit the cladding), but it could also be a "mix & match."
