Facelift bumper on a pre-facelift C43?
I'm considering switching my pre-facelift front bumper to the facelift version. Is it going to fit? I was looking around the forum and can't seem to find any info on this.
I know the diffuser fits the old rear bumper, so I figure they wouldn't design an entirely new shape of the front bumper, but maybe they did?

Yes, it will fit. I converted my 2016 C450 to a 2019 bumper. It's a direct. I am looking for a front lip but nothing decent out there yet.. Maybe I'll do a custom one
swap.
you might need a c43 stock lip for these, not sure (currently you have a c300 unit)

Yh you right I have the c300 unit but I bought for cheaper knowing I'll be replacing the front lip to something more aggressive. I saw the Race-design and Brabus front lips and they're not for me. I perfer the look of the Performmaster front lip but it's way over priced or the OEM amg Optics Package front lip but can't find them anywhere unless speced from factory, can't even order them from the mercedes dealership

Mercedes c205
Hey wondering if you can help, I’ve tried to facelift my C205 coupe (2018) today and realised there’s no bracket for the radar! Did you have this issue and if so how did you fix it?

Not sure if you're still around. Mind sharing where you purchased your facelift bumper? Currently converting my 2016 C300.
