C63 AMG Oil Cooler

I am looking into an OEM / aftermarket replacement for the oil cooler core that sits behind the right passenger side fog light. After searching online I found two different part numbers:

209 500 06 00
204 500 31 03

Has anyone replaced this part? What's involved?

Thanks, I think the BS version would be much more expensive than OEM. Also looks like the 204 part is not the AMG version, surprisingly it comes up on parts.com when searching for the c63 oil cooler.

I remember reading that the Fluid MotorUnion kit ended up running hotter than OEM. People were advised to stay away. I'll see if I can find the link.

Edit: Found it.

See post #48.

^ thanks I saw a few threads that said it did not work well. I think I will have to stick with OEM. Will attempt to remove my bumper to inspect mine before going ahead.
