CLK55 rear bumper cutout

CLK55 rear bumper cutout
I have a CLK500 and was trying to add quads
Instead of getting the bumper I have right now cut I'd rather get one with the cut outs so it can look as factory as possible
Does anyone know if it would be hard or easy to remove the one I have right now to install the new one?
Thanks

It your money and you can waste it any way you want. In my opinion, I think it just stupid to spend at least $1K part, paint and labors on a mod that cost around $50 to do and look 99.9% as oem quad bumper. If you cut the bumper and buy the oem quad black out bumper cover, it almost impossible to see the cut out because the black out cover pretty much cover up the cutout part.

I'm sure other shops can do it for less I just have to look around
I also noticed the tip isnt really as far to the left as I'd like to be. Its not like the 06 500s or the 550s
I already have the tips and muffler just cant decide if I should look for a shop to cut the bumper or pull the trigger on the diffuser

I should have said it in the first post instead of putting "bumper" but I was referring to the black plastic with the quads already cut out

The second part of what you said was exactly what I was talking about sorry if I wasn't clear about it but thats the clk55 part I was trying to purchase

Ordering these part can be very tricky. The only way to order the right part is find a 2005 Clk55 with OEM factory quad exhaust. Just do a search on Ebay for only year 2005 Clk55 and use that ar VIN# to place your order.

I think that's the black trim he's talking about.
