I don't dream of owning a M-B............I could buy one if I wanted. I don't need a peace sign on my car to make me feel special. I work on highend and exotic cars everyday. I LOVE my little Crossfire because it has a REAL AMG engine(377rwhp......dyno proven) and distinctive looks/style. I don't lose my car in a parking lot or have people getting confused whether it's a C,E or S class(they all look the same to "average" folk). Ohh; and I love it when guys like you try to show your "superiority" by pointing out that I drive a lowly Crossfire and you have an almighty Mercedes..............if only you knew. LMFAO

You want to come over and take the engine apart and see that it IS an AMG engine. I just put the parts back on that belonged there in the first place. All Chrysler did to the engine was change the stamping on the manifolds from "AMG" to "SRT-6". I'll race any SLK32 or C32 you can find(that's not sucking on a bottle) and you'll see it's no poser.............more like a wolf in sheeps clothing. My 377rwhp dyno was in a nice hot shop and the car is running OEM exhaust from engine to the rear tips.

So after reading through the whole post I gathered the following part numbers:
Bumper: 20488551259999 (stupid question: why is the # longer then others? and also is it possible to get a Euro version, without the amber sidemarkers?)
Bottom grilles: 2048850553 2048850653 2048850453
Basic carrier: 2048852865
Foams Reinforcement L: 2048850516 R: 2048850616 (center piece is reused)
Grille: 2048801083 lower, 2048800983 upper, and Stay for radiator grill 2048850336
Chrome fog surrounds L: A2048851774 R: A2048851874 (actual fogs are reused)
is there is anything missing? I want to do only a front bumper swap, nothing more.
Also when you mention cutting the bumper, did you actually cut it yourself or was it done by the shop? (I am curious what is exactly need to be cut, and how big is a chance to mess up the bumper if I do it myself)

All the modifications were performed by a professional shop, IS NOT plug and play. But can do by any good shop. The differences between C63 and C350 is 1/2" in each side. Are know the Euro p/n, but to avoid use the sidemarkers you can fill with plastic or fiberglass. Send me a PM for more information.

First off your car looks really nice..fine job. But get rid of the badge. Hate to break it to you but thats not a c63 and your gonna look really stupid if a real one comes next to you and blows your doors off. And be careful with that nitro crap you don't want to blow up your motor or transmisson.

C63 AMG(sold), 2009 CL550, 2010 S550 Majestic Black, 2010 ML550, 2006 C230, 2009 Venza
Perfect Poser example. You can debadge your C350 and put C63 on the rear and change the front bumper and change the emblems on the side. You can also change your exhaust to try to simulate the real sound but when you get smoked by an M3, ISF, RS4, or a real C63 itself do you think it was worth wasting all that money on a regular C instead of just buying the real ****?

He's going to tell everyone @ e90fanatics on how he "destroyed" a C63 and we'll never hear the end of it. LOL. But good job in tinkering and making it fit. Like stated before, please remove the "6.3" fender badges.

Do 350 Sport models come with and AMG badge on the trunk? I happened to be at the dealer to pick up some parts and I noticed this C350 with an AMG badge. The car still had the window sticker.

Nope. Was just the Dealer pulling a cheap and tacky scheme to try and lure in some customers dumb and tacky enough to fall for it.
