I think the 63 Black is the no brainer but for a practical swap, the facelifted AMG front bumper gets my vote.

I like the 63 or the BS bumper, but don't feel the need to change the one I have. By CLK55 and CLK550 do you mean pre-facelift and facelift?

63 AMG. I have bought the face lifted one. I was going to buy the 63 but the shipping cost alone was $600(and probably 25-30% tax on that once it reached customs here in Sweden).

I like the 63, the BS and the Brabus equally.

Realistically, I like the CLK63 front bumper the most. The CLK BS bumper to me looks the best, but requires new front fenders, parts, $$$$, etc...

It should be within one or two month. Getting the bumper is very hard. I don't know why dealer won't sell any part off the BS.

Any part of or any part off? If you're asking a dealer to sell the front bumper off a brand new BS sitting on the showroom floor I would assume it to be quite hard.

I like my AMG bumper... It's an '06 so I guess that makes it a post face-lift...

I'd like to see an affordable entire Black body-kit for a 209, but I'm not going to hold my breath.

IMO the 63s front bumper is the most aggressive, the BS lacks foglights,
