Buying a front bumper

hi guys, I just realized the my front bumper is damaged and it needs to be replaced. Any suggestion where I should get the bumper from? I'm fine with brabus or amg replica or even a OEM bumper with sliced price.

Thanks

People have had bad luck with the fitment of the replicas so it's not recommended. How much are you looking to spend? I bought mine used off eBay

I don't really know how much I should expect to spend. How much did you buy yours? There's an amg replica on ebay for less than $300 but not sure if it's good.

I Think you will spend more money to make it fit on replicas. I suggest you wait for OEM parts....

The one on ebay looks pretty promising. Check it out

$400 shipped is quiet cheap. how was the condition when you bought it?

That bumper is a replica. Anytime it says "style" that means replica. I lucked out b/c the bumper is in great condition. No scratches and only two little broken tabs that were repaired. Don't think it was an easy find, I was watching this bumper for about 6 months until the price went down enough.

My insuranse co bought me a new o.e.m one out of the box when I hit a curb after some overly agressive driving. Intrestingly on the bottom of the bumper (passenger side) it says: Made in Afferbach, Germany and has the AMG Logo. My old oem one didnt have that. Is that how it is on anyone elses?

I don't know... Really can't find the new one with reasonable price..
Should I go for one of these you recommended?

Try sending an offer to the guy from the third link. I'm pretty sure he is willing to go down on the price, it has been up for a while.
