Concentrate on the C43 as the C63 has different dimensions.

In the case of the W205 C 43 bumper, it is basically amg line with a different diffuser and exhaust tips so I guess get amg line of regular MB models and you get the C 43 look, the exhaust tips and diffuser both are separate as well.

Edit: Here is an example of what to expect I found on Google images, might be missing parts or have additional parts that you don't need but should be the ballpark: https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/CvsAA...0S/s-l1600.jpg
As for the actual bumper, it is basically amg line.

Do you like this facelift look or do you prefer the pre-facelift? If you want pre-facelift the parts will be different, as you expect.

If you want to save some cost, keep your original bumper and just swap the diffuser and tips and the other components shown in that Google image (not sure if it will work so confirm first please)

no worries at all, feel free to ask questions : ) I just want you to confirm through research if things fit properly before actually buying just in case. There are various components to just the exhaust cutout part as you can tell from the image that was previously linked so research is important to confirm you buy all the right parts.

no, you are fine if you get a W 205 C43 bumper of any year (W205 C 43 only started for model year 2017 anyways) , you can even get a C 450 bumper of any year but W205 C 450 was only for one model year if I recalled correctly, they are the same car minus differences in badging and some mechanical components (like transmission) so it should fit your C 300.

It really depends on what exhaust tips you like.

Edit: Actually, since I didn't actually install exterior mods myself to my car but forum member Keith66 did, I am sure they will be more than happy to help you out with your car as well, give them a PM and go from there : ) or reply to their thread and link yours there so they can reply to you on their thread or on your thread. Here is their thread: https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w...ml#post8552605
