Don't know but if they go to all the trouble of adding all the details like chrome bumper trims, cutout for tow hooks & headligh washer, grills and fog light.. I'm sure it a OE fit. Notice the inside of the bumpers, it just like OE one and not like any other bumper cover I seen that just a cover only. It's cheap..maybe someone should try it out and give us some feedback. I would definity get it if I have a reg W211.

As most members here will agree on (at least on the AMG boards), aftermarket non-OEM body parts are always potential trouble with fitment. It's better, imho, to stick with OEM on this kind of stuff.
My body shop (a super high-end RR, Ferrari, AMG, Bentley, Lambo shop) refuses to install non-OEM parts. They will let you buy your own parts but it has to be OEM or they won't install and give you their lifetime warranty.
(p.s., I learned my lesson with some aftermarket Porsche body parts. Now I buy only OEM from a vendor in Belgium.)

The fitment of the front lower grilles is very poor. You can see gaps where the foglight mesh meets the bumper. I can't imagine how the fitment would be on an actual vehicle. I don't have any experience with this particular kit. But I agree with 220S to stick with OEM parts. Out of everything in that kit, my guess would be that the sideskirts would be the best piece.
