Mercedes Benz C190 GTS Coupe IMP Performance Portion Carbon Fibre front bumper

Got distracted and hit my front right bumper. You will be able to see the dents and scratches in the photos below.
Right side headlight was also damaged (scratched & cracked).
Decided to give the car a minor front bumper upgrade. Wanted to mod the car for a bit since I got it hahaha...
The bumper was from a brand called IMP Performance. It's just crazy when you look at it...
It came in one piece, partly fibre and partly carbon fibre, I will explain more details in the photos.


Spot the scratch yet?


its here lol



Here are some photos before changing bumper




The bumper itself.


Front grille, canards and even the star logo are made of carbon fibre!!!! The quality is phenomenal!!!!!



I was speechless when I see the new front end...






Painting of the bumper was also finished in a very high quality.


Carbon fibre party!!!


It looks so much more aggressive than before now...

Should I do anything on the rear of the car as well? Please let me know guys....

Looks awesome I'm a big fan of the exterior CF. Curious: was a phone part of your 'distraction'?

That's one of my favorite bumpers, as well as the corresponding side skirts and diffuser.

Looks great! But it is very aggressive. I’d recommend some beefy side skirts and rear diffuser to help the flow. Maybe even a different spoiler as well.

Nice choice tho 👍🏼

Looks beautiful.

you need a RW carbon rear diffuser. It will match perfectly.

I have the same bumper on my car. I like it, but clearance is an issue and you have to be careful of curbs. The new placement of the sensors don’t seem to catch curbs so you have to be very careful of them.
