w205 to w206 facelift?

ECS tuning has a kit out, 6 month wait...any thoughts? has anyone done it already? or has a parts list?

thoughts / opinions on doing this? w206 from all I see mechanically is still experiencing issues, I do want to refresh my w205 and love the platform itself

aint cheap, still need to add paint costs on top, possible install costs and then there the unknown, will it all fit perfectly? overall quality? will it not give errors?
to be fair, if you have a C43 or C63, not too high in miles and plan on keeping the car for a few more years it i would say do it but otherwise... might be better to sell the 205 and add bit extra money to buy a young second hand 206

w206 front bumper is a direct swap if you wanna keep it factory fit finish having said that the after market bumpers are good too. ive done the c63 look conversion and it fit perfect.
here's a link you may wanna look through, info would probably help the w206 swap too.
