Honestly, by the time you do all the upgrading, you'd be better off just buying a 2020 from a $$ standpoint. The interior, especially, with the upgraded electronics will be a fortune, if you can even get all the parts and for it to code/work correctly.

Not to mention you won't get the resale value out of it. I'd suggest trading in the 2017 if you have one already or waiting a year for pre-owned prices to come down.

Thanks for the replies guys ! I somehow did know this but I live in a country thats heavily sanctioned due to political reasons. So i can not buy any 2020 that's why I asked . So if any of you could tell me what to do in a nutshell !?
I want to have a clearer perspective of whats ahead.

Dude, if you are going to do that huge of a job, go with the 63 body. Start with the guestimate pricing the following, you will quickly come to realize that you will be spending close to $10,000 US on just the body stuff for the front before labor. I dont even want to imagine how much changing the electrical system would be.
Front Bumper Cover - $1500 ish
Bumper Grill Inserts - $400 ish
Center Grill - $800 sh
Mercedes Star (Might be the same)
Parking Sensors (might be the same)
Cameras Might be the same. (a friend of mine was backed in to and it was 9700 to replace the radar thingamabob
Headlights $2500 ish
Headlight Harness $200 - $400ish
Lower Lip $500
Lower Grill Insert $300
Fenders $600
This is just a guess for the front bumper only.
63 sideskirts $2000
63 rear bumper conversion $1500 (ask ink, hes done it)
