getting a E55 bumper but....

Quick question gentlemen, I'm going to a E55 front and rear bumpers, but I'm sure whether I need to change the brackets for the front bumper. And if there is anything else that I will need to get except the fog lights, and grills?

Thank You

you'll also need the clips for the front grill. I also read something about an adaptor that's needed for the fog lights because the E55 fogs are different.

For the rear bumper, you'll need the AMG quad exhaust

have fun with your conversion. I'm doing mine next week, hopefully...
I'll let you know if that foglight adaptor is needed when my car is worked on.

You can reuse the foam from the front bumper but you must modify the plastic inner-support. I never researched how much this inner-support costs but it wasn't worth the time driving down to the dealer took me 5 minutes to modify. This is what they do on all the Brabus bumpers anyways..
