Did you try E Bay? I know they had a lot on there for sale. Also you can try local junk yards or salvage yards to see if they have what you might be looking for? How damaged is yours? does it just need some love and paint or is it after an accident?

Not repairable, completely damaged someone f*d it up. No parting out places and junk yards here around Toronto have them, and I know all of them. Lucky you guys in the states there any many, just not here in toronto

Here's a couple in Canada. I found them searching for CL55 AMG, but they clearly state otherwise. I posted them anyway in case you want to call for clarification.

these guys ship to canada , and will paint it to match your color code

Worth mentioning, my local paint shop (that is repainting a front bumper for one of my AMGs this week) suggests that a flex agent with a finite period of high flexation (I think I just made up that word : ) is normally added to the paint and the bumper must be installed within a certian number of days (to avoid cracking?) .... now this has never been a problem for me (having personally taken the bumpers on and off of 2 of my AMGs to upgrade the heat exchangers) ... but perhaps PPG products (or whatever most shops use these days) are tangibly different than the paint that mercedes used?

best wishes for a speedy recovery
Chris

So I ordered it from here and these guys wasted a month of my time. They don't reply to e-mails and don't pick up their phone or reply to voicemails. They charged my card and finally when I reached them they said they are out of stock and their supplier does not have it. Not happy right now as I lost my chances of buying one from other suppliers listed (which are now sold).

My hunt continues, please if you guys see one please post thank you so much!

sorry for the bum steer. I had no first hand experience with that outfit , but now that you have, at least others will know to avoid these guys.

this likely wont help your situation, (but some in the states may find this useful). Recently I bought a used sl55 front bumper from another member. It seemed nice enough, it had no cracks, just a few gouges and many rock chips. but my paint shop said it needed 500-1000 dollars worth of reconditioning (maybe I should look for another paint shop ?: ) ... and then I stumbled into CORONA BUMPER in Santa Clara Ca ... they reconditioned it and left it primed and ready to paint for only $150 ! They also do repairs and supply re manufactured bumpers at reasonable prices.

again Benz addict, sorry for giving you a lead to a company that wasted your time and messed up your opportunity to buy another ... I hope you find a good replacement soon.

best of luck,
Chris
