First off, sorry to hear that.
However, it might be a good opportunity to get the Brabus front spoiler with four auxiliary headlight - your 55 will be one item closer to full Brabus configuration.

how much does the factory bumper cover cost?
I don't know, but suspect quite a bit. That's why I would prefer to get something different.
Otherwise, you pay significant amount (definitely over 1K) and get the same thing.

So, how is your front bumper doing? Did you get it fixed?
Sorry for asking, I just like your car.
I'm expecting obsidian black '04s CLK500 in July and planning to put the same Monoblocks on it, not sure 18"s or 19"s. By the way, how it feels with 19"s. Isn't it like wearing heavy shoes? Well, your engine is quite capable...

The factory wanted 1,300.00 for the factory AMG bumper cover, so i called up Brabus and they told me they can fit their bumper on my car and being a good customer, they gave me a good discount on their bumper.
so now my car will look like this but in silver..

tango,
I think it's the same spoiler, the grills behind the spoiler are different though.
It seems, that the spoilers are different due to different angles the pictures were taken, different colors of the cars. Correct me, if I'm wrong.

This silver one http://www.parvinder.dk/cars/fastest...annclk-01.html
To me, those spoilers are the same too, the grills on the bottom are different.
It looks much better in black - agree.

AMG BRED,
There is one more positive aspect in replacing the factory bumper - you'll get rid of those ugly yellow corners.
By the way, are you getting rear bumper too, or just front?

OK I follow you, the silver is a photo shop picture which was made for the press before the W 209 was released in the market.
I am happy you like the black car, because it's the real thing and it looks just as good in silver.
