2009 CLS550 w/AMG
Help w/rear bumper section

I recently purchased a 2009 CLS 550 w/AMG Sport Package. However, if you look at my attached pics, the rear bumper valance piece looks to me as if it is from a CLS63.... room for quad tipped exhaust.

I just want to find the correct piece that will fit up correctly around the dual-single tipped exhaust...as it most likely was from the factory. I am guessing either the guy before me had put this CLS63 valence on to accommodate an aftermarket exhaust, then put the stock exhaust back on before trading it in.

Or did the CLS550 w/AMG actually come with a gap like this ??

Can anyone help me find the MB part number for the correct valence for this car?

My VIN is WDDDJ72X69A141346

On EPC-net, it seems that it is either:

A2198850925 or A2198850825

while the ones for the CLS63 are A2198850925 or A2198851025 ???

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

Sorry to tell you but that is a CLS63 bumper so previous owner probably had AMG exhaust on it and took it off before selling....

More of a reason for you to get AMG exhaust

VIN specific lower panel for your vehicle is 2198850825 (to comparison shop, parts.com $102) with original bumper 21988516259999 ($1,296) - both need to be painted, not certain if 0825 is compatible with current bumper.

If I could find a "bargain" on an AMG exhaust, I would go that route, but it seems like brand new from dealer is only option. Pricey$$

You can get a CLS55 or E55 exhaust. E55 exhaust are all over this site for sale for around $500.
