Will a WALD V2 Rear bumper fit a 2001 E430?

Hi everyone,
I'm kind of new to this forum, but I'm raring to fix up my E430.....

What I'm aiming for is the V1 kit on the front and sides, but want a more aggressive rear piece....

From piecing together some old posts, it sounds like the V2 Rear piece is a full replacement bumper. Is that true? If so, will it bolt up without modification to a 2001 E430?

If it's just a Rear Skirt, I guess I'll have to go buy myself a Pre 2000 rear bumper first?

Thanks!
J.J.

if you get a pre 2000 bumper it wont fit b/c your headlights, fenders and hood are different. You can do the rear and skirts any years, it'll fit.

Cool... so I'm planning to buy the front and sides like this:


and then the rear like this:


Just to confirm... is that rear piece in the picture above a full bumper replacement or just a skirt?

Hmmm now that I look at it, it does look like the sides from the top pic look pretty much flush with the body, but the rear in the bottom pic flares out.... that might not match....

Thanks!

I like the whole look as well, but the rear bumper isn't low enough (in my opinion).

Take a look at Mysticblu999's post from last year:

Also, if anyone knows the current market price for this kit, could you let me know

Thanks!
