Dude, you'd have to swap, the lights, the bumper, the internals of the bumper, the fenders, the hood, etc. etc. etc.
It would cost a fortune.
Personally I like the look of the current version, or rather the old version,
CL203 especially if it's updated with clear lights, and fogs, and 2005 grill.
As far as getting the tail lights to line up, I have to wonder if the edge of the bumper would play
into this.
i also have a dealer account at the merc parts dept in my twn i'm sure they could prob get the parts too if i find the part numbers and know the fitment

I agree...Sport Coupe is the better looking out front, but they finally got that rear bumper handled right on the CLC. I'd trade up for a CLC350, sure beats that ugly *** 'E' LK they replaced the CLK with.
not bad, even thought i searched 2 full months before buying mine, i prefer this one... 18's or 19's ?
EDIT : btw a renntech lip spoiler rapped in CF would look SICK SICK SICK
Hi, i m on 18" and is staggered setup. Btw, any ideas where to get bodykits or C/F for the CLC coupe? I manage to get a vendor to do the CF bonnet and boot cover, requires at least 5 ppl to get the deal goes through for CLC coupe model. Unfortunately, not many ppl having this mod fever at our end. Also, I m looking for the black front grill, any idea where to get one?
by any chance does anyone have pics of the CLC 350 with AMG mods on it im desperate to see if its worth me doing the changes? and does anyone know wat the average KW i will pull out once amg chip is installed? thanks!

This is all I have of an intended CLC55 - To my knowledge this is not in production as yet & the design might not be finalised. I think that this was an artists impression.

I guess you mean the curl on the clear part that forms the spoiler look on the hatch shown in red here....
I wonder if a bit of fiberglass or filler of some sort could be used to make it match up?
Easiest and cheapest way to find out would to be just purchase the blanking panel(s) for one side and play with it....2038210136 9999 AND 2038210236 9999
Can someone get a price on this?
Doesn't the rest of the world just order parts online?
Any links? Here's one more pic
I ordered the taillights, DHL tried to deliver today and I was away from the shop, argh. Can't wait to see them (ebay# 150884841055 , 160869746980). I know they won't fit because I just ordered the lower lights, not the upper pieces or middle trunk filler.
Fitting at least one side will give me a better perspective as to what needs to be ordered / fabricated to make it look right.
I did not order the inside hatch lights because I want the look of the 2014 C-Class Coupe, but depending on how these fit I may need to order those too.
If you had ordered the top part of those tail lights, you would find they actually extend out about 1 cm to the rear VS your CL203 taillights. And thus if you had the CLC taillight top on CL203 with regular CL203 hatch, the taillight top would extend about 1 cm further back than the top of the hatch-deck. At least that's what I recall from examining Hkirov's CLC conversion (he had both CLC taillights with tops and CLC hatch) and I examined the dimensions of the CLC taillight because I thought that would be a nice mod for the CL203 but you really need the CLC hatch unless you want it to look like that boxy Toyota Celica.

Yes, you're right, I definitely need that filler piece here:
I think I found those pics you mentioned (attached)
Picked up the outer clc lights, but it looks like I'll need the CLC trunk filler and upper filler pieces above the lights for sure. I really like the look of the CLC lights, they remind me of the new C-Class coupe.
Here's the CLC part numbers for the hatch. The Henderson Nevada Mercedes dealership was nice enough to find this on their computer system, however they could not order any of these parts.
If you have any luck with these part #'s please post where you were able to order them from.

mbpartsworld.com has Mercedes-Benz USA computer system part numbers - if you can find it there, then your local MB dealership should be able to order it for you.
Did you try ordering from same place you got CLC taillights from?
CLC was never in USA - thus Mercedes-Benz USA don't have CLC parts on their computer system which is why your local Mercedes-Benz dealership can't find CLC parts on their computer.
Once in a while, at the Mercedes Dealership you'll find a really nice Parts person,... explain that the part isn't usually available here but you have the Mercedes-Benz part number (they can't look it up!) and request that they ask someone at Mercedes-Benz USA to special order it from Germany,... usually takes a day to get you the price and about 1-2 week to get from Germany to your local Mercedes-Benz dealership. This has worked for me for a few MB parts that are not available in Canada.
