w208 expression DTM fron t bumper cover
anyone have any experience with this bumper cover?

found out i have some damage on my stock one and i do not intend to pony up the $1200+ for a OEM replacement front bumper. i may repair it, its just the posts in the middle of the lower opening that have broken off from the bottom of the bumper. i may just have a shop repair that area or even do some zip tie magic just to hold the bottom from wanting to separate from the upper part in the lower opening.
i do like the looks of this expression one, but what about the fog lights??
do they just shine through mesh grille on that bumper or just delete them?
i wont be getting it unless i know some feedback from another owner. not much turned up on search for it

I'd be wary of how low that is. The only thing on my car that's gotten messed up is the damned sport front bumper cover assembly. We have end-of-parking-space concrete block barriers at my work that I swear are higher than normal - because they keep catching the underside of my bumper and tear it up underneath. Drives me up a wall.
