Front Bumper Woes. Help Please.
Hellow All! Kinda sad to make this my first post but I am in need of assistance. I have in front of me a bumper that is in need of some help. My fiancee somehow broke the front bumper/lip and it ripped out the fog light as well. My dilema is the removal of the front bumper. I figured I can do this myself. I was doing some research and have still a few questions. I'd appreciate it a lot if anyone could field them for me.
I searched and searched and found quite a bit about removing the bumper but no one really went into detail about removing the front headlight washers. How do you remove those? Is there just a cover that pops out? I'm kind of scared to pry on that and break off some plastic tabs.
The car is a 1999 CLK 430 and I was wondering if someone could check if this bumper is oem and will be a direct replacement.Front Bumper?
Is anyone selling a front bumper for a 99 clk 430 preferably Black Opal (Kinda Blue)?
Anyone selling a passengerside front headlight?
Again Thanks for any kind of input you may have!

haters crazy
To take off the washer "covers" you just twist and pull and they will pop off. Don't pull too hard cuz you might break something. Josh K has a great write up on how to remove the front bumper somewhere in these forums. About the bumper you posted off of ebay, this will fit your car but please be aware that this is JUST the bumper. You will also need to buy a molding, fog lights, and the lower "molding" (I dont know what its called) and it is VERY expensive from the dealer. Depending on the damage to the car you might also need to replace reinforcements and absorbers. If you are in the D.C. area we can meet up and I'll tell you what you need and help you take off the broken bumper and put on the new one.
