Rincewind, the front bumper/spoiler of your silver car is very hot, is it stock or aftermarket? if so, what model, type or brand is it??

yes its stock
if your car is 94-97 (pre facelift) i dont think it will be a direct bolt on replacement. steve aka mbenz.nl got his 1993 c to fit a 98-00 sport bumper, with tweaking of course

if you replace the front bumper your car might look a little off.

94-97 w202s (except for the AMG ones) have a black stripe all around the undercarriage skirts of the car. if you replace the bumper with a newer 98-00 bumper, you will have no black stripe, but the rest of your car will. it will look kinda funny. I think TP's car looks like that right now. he has a 97 w202 but with a sport front bumper.

TP has the C36 AMG bumper. I have a place where you can get an entire C36 Body kit for 550 dollars including shipping to your door. I'm waiting for a guinny pig to try it out before I get it. Would you like to be that pig?

hahahahaha,, i wouldnt actually mind being that guinea pig.... but internatioal shipping will cost another ~400 soo.......... sorry...
but... wait a moment..... the black stripe on the front bumper is not that noticeable..... however i WAS going to paint that black stripe the same colour as the body...
