Yes, everything will fit, i tried that in C43,,

but if you interesting about front rolling fender,(which i didn't.), then you have to stick with original AMG C43 fender..!

ZAYED,,

standard C-klasse bumper will look very poor on C43.
why would you put this on your AMG?

Good Point, all standard W202 bumpers looks soo ugly, compared to unique C36/C43's..

All parts work. Front doors on predated(95,96,and 97) w202s don't have airbags and that's the only difference I know as far as doors go. Fenders are same but they will need to be rolled....that is if you are lowered. If not you'll be fine.

I'm pretty sure all rear doors are identical since there are no air bags in the back.

I personally love the look of the 98+ w202 kit but I would never put it on the AMG.

w202 body parts:

1. Hood fits from any w202 1994-2000

2. Fenders, same from 1994-2000 all interchangeable, the small trim on the fender is specific if it's regular or sport version, but if yours is not damaged, you can easily swap it. If you want rolled C43 fender, you'll have to look for a used one, as far as i know, even if you buy a factory replacement fender from the dealer, they will give you a regular non-rolled w202 fender.

3. Front bumper, fits from any 94-00 w202 model. Note that a regular bumper (non-AMG) does not have factory fog lights, regular w202 had the foglight inside the main headlight.
If you repair your car due to an accident and your title will be salvaged, in order to re-register it you will have to pass brake & light inspection, at least that's how it is here in CA. If you do the test by the book at an official brake & light check point you will fail if you don't have foglights in the bumper. They check everything by the book. So, if you'll use a regular bumper and need such inspection, make sure you mount some fog lights in the bumper. You'll have to be creative, any fogs will work as long as they're DOT approved. They check that!

4. Rear bumper, any will fit but make sure you're taking the matching bumper mounts. Those are the mounts that mount on the side of the body and bumper slide over them. Those mounts are bumper specific.
I don't remember exactly and i'm not sure, but you might have to do some trimming around the exhaust tips if you use a 98-2000 facelift version back bumper on a c43/c36. A pre-fecalift 94-97 back bumper doesn't sit low enough to cause exh tip interference.

5. Side skirts... any 98-2000 fits. Jack hole caps are side skirt specific and the C36 version are the hardest to come by. Pre facelift models did not have side skirts (except maybe some one off sport models), those had round plastic plugs for jack holes.

6. Doors are specific for 94-97 and 98-2000. 94-97 do not have front airbags and the inside sheet metal is different, different cut-outs and bends, even for the rear ones.
So, for your case, you'd be looking for 98-2000 doors.
You can use older doors if you don't need airbags and you will have to use old type interior door panels.

7. Trunk. Anything fits, there are different designs thru the years, also the rear emblem is trunk specific, flat or slightly bent.



If you're in LA area, i have fenders, regular bumpers, side skirts, doors and trunks.

One correction to post above. Updated door panels will work on 97 and older w202. All you have to do is slightly modify the airbag mound. Friend of mine has sport trim door panels from a 98 c230 on his 97 c36
