Face Lifted W210 front Bumper cover for Per-facelift
Will the front bumper cover from the face lifted W210 bolt onto a 1997 W210 which is a pre-facelift model? I'm tired of the old design and it's chipped and dirty.
thanks.

thanks for the reply. shoot, what would be the solution for making our pre-facelift w210's a little more modern looking? I've seen some body kits on ebay like the AMG one but I don't like the front bumper it's too bulky. I need something the flows better with the body.
Also, does anyone have the side moldings from the post facelift w210 for sale? I need those. thanks.

no-the rear bumper on the later w210's comes up higher then the older ones-it's not an easy swap either. Those early AMG style front's are pretty pricy-good luck finding one! If you put the later stuff on an earlier W210, I think the hood needs to be swapped too. Try parking next to a newer model and notice the differences...

AMG conversion
hey guys..
i actually will be doing the 02 AMG conversion to my E320.. rear bumper and side skirts already finished and it looks fantastic. just the front one left to do which will be finished in feb. u'll need to get the new fenders and hood in order to accomplish this project. good luck guys and will post pics once project is finished.

good info, do you remember what problems you had putting on the more modern looking rear bumper?
If anything, i just want to add that an the updated lights to give her a 02 look.

check out axl's thread on here , a decent body shop can do it pretty easily (show them AXL's pics and have both bumpers ready), you just have to take the top of the old one and the bottom of the new one the line looks like it lines up quite well. they sell polymers to fix and repair bumpers that will weld the material together.
