HELP - Wife smashed front end of her car

Hi Guys,

Sorry but i dont frquent these forums very often as the merc is the wife's car. This morning she smashed the front end all up so i naturally thought time to upgrade. She likes the car too much for me to replace it so i might as well update the look.

I have tried searching but since i am under a time crunch i was hoping i could lean on your knowledge so i don't make a mistake.

Her car is a 2009 C350 4matic. I was hoping that since i need to replace all of the front end including headlights and fenders it might be worth putting on a the c63 front end. Can anyone tell me if the 2013 version works on her car, or if i should just order the 2009 version. The hood will also be replaced.

Is there any other changes i should make at the same time so the car does look odd with just a c63 front end.

Any help i very much appreciated, i am going to continue searching but any first hand knowledge will be very valuable.

Thanks

the c63 fenders are longer than the normal c's. you can update the look to the new 12-13 c's or just get her the new c.

She smashed up her 350 and you're calling her crazy for turning down the power upgrade of a C63? LOL
