I had experience to change Avantgarde front bumper to AMG front bumper, no ideas for elegance to AV... anyway from my experience, the splash shield, bolt positions, inner fender etc are the same. u need to beware a few blankets behind the bumper covers are also required.

Apart from the front bumper, u will also need
- 3 pcs chrome trim
- center air-let grill and front and back fog grill
- support bracket: center (A2058853365), left and right (A2058853265, A2058853165)
- support foam (or called "energy absorber", u can re-use the foam from AV version but just cut the left and right side of the foam)
- lower bumper bracket (A2058853865, A2058853965)
- finally, new license plate mount

This is how I handled the foam - keep the center part but chopped the left and right side... for sure not perfect but the foam is indeed very expensive.

My car is Estate - finally I bought a used AMG rear bumper from Japan. AFAIK, the bracket between AV and AMG are the same (both sedan and estate). For sure u need to get the exhaust tips, the valence, the towing eye cover, and there is a so-called "energy absorb" unit at the valence.
