2012 C Class
2012 C Class Sedan Body Change Question RE: Front Bumper

Hey all! Just got a 2012 C Class Sedan & I had purchased a body kit for it. When I talked to the companies sales team they said the front bumper I got from them would fit a new C Class. But in 2012 the body style changed & when I looked at the slip the body kit company sent me....it says Front Bumper 2008-2011....I don't want to take this in to get fitted if it's not going to work.
My question is this: Are the 2012 C Class Sedan Front Bumpers interchangeable with the 2011 C Class Sedan Front Bumpers?

Thank you!

neither the front or rear bumpers are teh same, but the rear can fit pre or facelift models. The front bumper is 2012 only, the opening of the headlights is different. There are pics on here of a guy who did a C63 style kit and used a 2011 setup, it fits but the fitment is weird around the lights, not terrible but I wouldnt do it on mine
