Trade entire CLS63 front for CLS base hood

I have 2012 CLS63 that my wife rolled into a rock. The damage was the tow hook cover was cracked in half and the bumper cover cracked behind the tow hook cover. The bumper cover also got a couple of scratches on it. I got insurance to agree to replace it all so I went and bought a Prior Designs front bumper and fenders that I had been drooling over for a while. What I didn't realize until the parts showed up was that the bumper is for a base CLS without the hump in the hood that the 63 has. What I am looking to do is trade someone with a base car for only their hood. I will give them everything they need to make their car look like a CLS63 in exchange. I will be giving them my hood, fenders, bumper, grills, fog lights, marker lights both stock orange and smoked, and all assorted foam backer pieces. Probably other stuff too that I'm forgetting. You will need to buy a tow hook cover, which costs about $100. The crack in the bumper has already been repaired and all that needs to be done is the scratches worked out and resprayed. I was estimated at less than $300 by the local exotic repair shop here. I only want your hood and you can keep the rest to resale or save or whatever. If you're really cool you'll throw in your fog lights since they are smaller and the AMG units don't fit my bumper. If not, I won't die as I mainly want the hood. I have pictures of everything and will take more of anything anyone wants to see if there is interest. My parts are stock black. My car is below and you can see the gap in the hood to bumper clearance at the hump. My hood is wrapped, has been for less than 4 months so simply pull off the wrap and the paint will be perfect black underneath. I'm not worried about your color as I'll just be wrapping it anyway. I'm located in Vegas. Non-shipping is easiest for us both, but if not possible we can try to work something out. I've shipped freight before and it's not hard, just not as simple as dropping off at the post office.

Edit - If this is the wrong place to put this, I apologize. Please let me know so I can move it.

Partially. I have the fenders, bumper, and drl but the rest is gone for the most part. Car got stolen so started moving the rest separately. If you want them you can have them cheap as I'm about to scrap them just to be rid of them.
