base model to sport model

hey yall,
so as the title says, im dedicating this thread to transforming my black base model c300. i want it to look more aggressive, etc.
i actually screwed myself over by impulse buying a used 2015 c300 and regretting that it didnt have led headlights and the sport package

what i've done so far:
otto auto led headlights
oem silver diamond grill (i want the black one, but i don't want to spend more money)
blacked out window trims

what i have in mind left:
sports bumper (maybe c63 bumper? but that means i need the fenders and hood too etc)
replica amg wheels or aftermarket
window tints

i'm ultimately trying to get this look:
base model to sport model-enlioak.png
i want to get a sportier bumper, so what should i do:

buy a c63 bumper from ebay (~$600 usd) [not including fenders / hood, i think itll look weird if its without those]

or

buy a sports package bumper (2058801840) and buy all those little pieces (3 piece trim, fog light cover things, sensors etc) + paint etc

they are the normal OEM lights?
below is my car. all black aside the red tail lights.
If i didn't had the sport package and wanted to put money against it i'd take this up as a great chance to make something more special so i would not add anything from the sport package.
I'd look at carlsson, brabus, lorinser etc
