who did the AMG bumper conversion???

I'm back!! lol

After being skeptical of the price of a new bumper and it holding me back from doing the conversion, I made a deal with someone, he needs a base bumper, gonna sell him mine and I'll go for AMG bumper. I've come across this eBay listing of an E63 front bumper with fog lamps and mesh grill (which seems to be plastic but will change it later). The material is PP, which I hear is pretty good. Here's the link:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/E63-AMG-Style-Front-Bumper-Without-PDC-For-Mercedes-Benz-2007-09-E-Class-W211/253017257707?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid =p2055119.m1438.l2649

Or, a bit more expensive Suvneer bumper:

What do you guys think?
And are the molding parts the same or do I need to purchase some or do something else? (i hope not)
Found a chrome grill for $85 and only other thing I need is paint, Brilliant Silver. A friend of mine will do the paint job for me, saves $3-400.


This is my only chance for the conversion I've been hoping for lol because I don't want to shell out almost 1k for it. I'm charging the other guy the the for bumper and the paint job, he's all in as well. Oh, and, I'm not looking into side skirts and rear bumper, just the front. This will be my last "project" on this E350.

I need input in this process and make it go smooth with you ppl with experience. I'm ready to make purchases.

Thanks in advance.

We offer the Suvneer bumpers at the same price, our kit includes everything you need to install except the grill and a hood pull, we have sold many of these kits and the responses have always been great. LINK

$230? On Suvneer bumper listing, it specifically states the required parts for 03-06 years, mine is 06. Down here is the list the website has up. The total for that comes about not even close to $230 lol

The last 5 items I posted I believe are not mandatory to install, you can leave it without. The ones you really need are the one in the pic you posted.
