Looking for C55 AMG front bumper
Anyone have tips where to get them? Quoted $1200 by a shop, but I know there's gotta be a cheaper way to source one.

Don't waste money then, keep the front as is. Your new buyer won't give you the difference

I know, but I will not sell a car with a bumper in the state mine is in. I don't plan on making money on the new bumper, or even breaking even, but I would still like to find a more reasonable cost for a bumper than $1200.

It's not easy trust me. I have worked for MB forever and I still couldn't find a cheap one. I finally just paid for it when it was almost falling apart. How bad is it do you have pics? I had mine recond and it fell apart again in a year. If you don't care about after-market I think extreme dimensions sells a bunch of low quality Chinese bumpers, but I never tried them. I actually met one of their employees who told me they are cheaply made. When you say 1200 does that include paint? Where are you located?

My one on the car is falling apart as well. I have a replacement, but apparently (just took it into the shop), the replacement has a crack that may or may not be fixable. If it is not, I will have to find another replacement bumper..
