HELP NEEDED
Friends,
I need you help once more and I'm not sure where to go to find it. I need the part number for the parts below for a 2007 CLS with AMG front bumper. I have purchased a 2007 AMG front bumper from, parts.com and the Rib Cages below are not lining up because of the switch to the AMG Front Bumper. Parts.com does not have them listed with AMG and I'm falling short on what and where to find the rib cage for the new AMG Front Bumper with the a new AMG ribcage. Can you please help me. My car is in the shop torn apart because of the fitment issue.
a. outer reinf Right
b. center reinf
c. outer reinf Left
In summary I am looking for the RIBCAGE for a AMG Front Bumper. The old bumper I took off was a Sport Bumper not an AMG.
I have sent Private messages to many people here in this forum and just wanted to post here in case others may know the answer to this unique question

What is the rib cage? Do you mean the reinforcement parts for the bumper? On parts.com did you select cls55 or cls63 model to find the bumper parts. Because it is the same bumper as an amg model. Did you click on view diagram and shows the parts listed as w/amg.

Ydlee,
First I want to thank you for a response. Secondly, Parts 12, 13 and 14 located at http://www.parts.com/parts/2007/MERC...agramCallOut=1 are identical parts for 2007 CLS 63 AMG. located here http://www.parts.com/parts/2007/MERC...agramCallOut=1
Both CLS 550 & CLS 63 for model year 2007 parts read same
a. 219 880 03 52 Left
b. 219 880 01 52 Central
c. 219 880 04 53 Right
What I have found out is that the current outer reinf Right, outer reinf Left and center reinf off a 2007 CLS 550 NON-AMG will not match the new front Bumper I purchased located here http://www.parts.com/parts/2007/MERC...6%20COMPONENTS for $1,260.00 (3rd Item Down). According to Dan, there is a note that indicates some sort of modifcation or steps needed in order for the two to mesh together correctly.
What specifically is happening is where the AMG foglights on the new AMG bumper will not match up with the old right & left reinf. The New AMG bumper has Round Fog lights and the old old right & left reinf are oval shaped. I know others here have done the swap but you and Dan have only replied.
R,
This was conformed by Dan a forum members that confirmed

My front bumperwas ordered from parts.com and was filled by Mercedes-Benz of Naperville so I think it would be safe to say OEM. I wonder if the inner reinforcments are different for the make and model and the rumor of all inner reinf are all the same. I can vouch that an 07 non sport bumperinternals will not fit on an 07 AMG bumper. The sport internals foglights are oval and the AMG bumper are round shaped. There is the dilema. I would assume thatI need to order an 07 CLS 550 AMG 63 bumper internals for proper fitment. Can anyone confirm this theory. Once again I appreciate all the assitance.
