Aftermarket Bumpers?
Some idiot backed into me yesterday and their trailer hitch harpooned my front bumper.

I'm wondering if anyone on this forum has had experiences with aftermarket W212 Bumpers.

There are tons of them on Ebay with some cool styling options, just not sure on the fitment of them.

any input would be appreciated.

Yes, I have a Carlsson full aero kit on my car and love it. Fitment of the kit is spot on and it gives the car an aggressive look. I have a spare Carlsson front bumper if you're interested for $800 which includes bumper grilles and LED drl's...

its painted Tenorite Gray as seen in the picture. I can however have it stripped; prepped and ready for paint if you'd like.

Just FYI Tenorite Gray = Steel Gray (different name depending on country, same paint code)
