I moded fenders to the c63 bumper, i couldnt find original fenders, the shape of fenders and bumper still the same to fit de 2012 headlamps just have to change the hood.

Which means you mod the fenders to fit the bumpers,
without any headlight adjustment.
i might be doing the same mod too.
Anything to look out?

I'm wondering did you get the lighting package headlights (bi-xenon) or the non lighting package ones (halogen)? I'm curious if they are interchangeable with the ones you are replacing, i assume no.

2012 lights and 2008 lights are 2 worlds apart! If I keep my car past this summer, I think that'll be my next mod
