w140 bumpers on w124. fitment issues?

how much modification do you think would have to be done.

by eye, the cars look about as wide as the other.. but with the w140 being obviously longer. i was wondering how hard itd be to fit a junction produce kit on a w124?

obviousky the JP kit it $4500+.. but just day dreaming.

how hard would it be? seems pretty easy, imo.

I think the w140 is a little bit wider than the w124? Why not just go with the wald kit for the w124, or even the AutoCouture kit? If the JP kit is Fiberglass then you can custom fabricate it to fit. I think there's somone on the forum that was doing some Fiberglass/Carbonfiber work?
