W209 CLK63 (non-Black Series) will also fit, just need the bumper, reinforcement insert, mesh grills, fog lights, and other small mounting hardware/parts. There are a few members here that have done the coversion.

I was always under the impression the fogs were the same and the only difference was the mesh that now has the chrome ring in it that now goes around the round fog lights. The pre-facelift w209 had the same fogs as the w203 yes. But the C55 has the round fogs just like the facelift w209. are you saying the round fogs for the C55 are different than the round ones on the Clk63 and facelifted w209?
and which do you know the part numbers for the reinforcement inserts? I assume they are just the 3 foam like pieces that go behind the bumper?

Foglights
Pre-facelift W209 = Regular W203
W203 C55 circle fogs are different from Facelifted W209. I am sure the circle is the same diameter, but the position of the bulb is different. The bulb is centered on the C55 but offset to one edge on the Facelifted W209

right so the position is different, but how does that mean the fog lights themselves are different? The fogs attach to the bumper itself. So if you simply have a new position on the bumper that the fogs rest, then the fogs should simply bolt into that position on the new bumper. Unless you are saying the mounting points on the C55 fogs are different than the mounting points on the CLK bumper?

Here's a question.... For a CF lip, can we C55 guys get one that fits the 06 07 08 CLK550/350? It's the "facelift" model for the CLK I believe. But from what I read here, you guys are saying its practically the same thing?

So CLK 06 and up CF lips does not fit a C55
However any CLK 03-08 bumper can fit a C55

well i searched both a c55 and a clk63 fog light and they seem to look identical. I'd have to find a part number. And on ebay I found 2 and they both said they fit most of the same vehicle. The C55 one didn't say it fit the clk63 specifically nor vice versa but with that said there are like 4 or 5 other models that are common between the two so I guess we just need someone who has actually done this.

lol ya so basically you're saying MB is stupid, ok with that I will agree. I searched that 203 number and it came up with a 07 c230 and 280 bumper lol. The others are variants of the pre-facelift w209 bumpers (parktronic, washers, etc)
