Hello Gary, in the process of installing my AMG front bumper onto my c230 sedan and interested in the CF lip, do you know what the current ETA on them being backordered and all??
Do you also have the licence plate cover and OEM fog lights available?

but since theres no sidemarkers. wouldnt i have a one of those annoying "L side marker check lamp" " R side marker check lamp" all the time. or do you guys have a fix for that. if so then i guess im down to order this bumper.

You can keep the sidemarkers in. Just wrap them in foil and find a place to mount them inside your bumper.... no errors

i have a question for everyone who had a pre-facelift and got the amg front bumper.
what bumper bar did you guys use? i currently have a203 885 0765 and it doesnt line up with the amg bumper. do i need to get an amg bumper bar? and if so what is the part number that i would need?
thanks

You dont have to get one but they do need slight modifications to get it to fit properly. I upgraded to the facelifted amg bumper, and I needed to cut a piece out of the top part where the grill sits and a part by the foglights.

My amg bumper was authentic c32 bumper so the reinforcement fit perfectly without alterations...if you look at my earlier post where you see the comparison between these bumpers you can see how and where they differ... so I would assume as we'll as per above^ that some mod to your reinforcement might have to be made

on mine pretty much nothing lined up, it was the same shape but the fogs were about 2 inches off and none of the clips and things that were supposed to line up, lined up.
this was my bumper before

None of them will line up. The amg style bumper you have is not the same as the oem one. The dimensions are slightly different. From what i can tell the c32 reinforcement is the same as all the other pre-facelift bumpers but has a piece missing near the foglights. The post facelift reinforcment only differs at a point where the headlight meets the bumper. Also, I think the bar right down the center of the bumper might be slightly longer on the amg ones.
