![Question](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
This lower rear bumper skid plate looks identical from the 550 to the AMG 63 one, the only difference being the 63 one is stainless steel and the 550 one is plastic chrome....My dealership indicated to me that it is not a direct fit between the two, and mentioned that I needed a whole new AMG bumper to accomodate this modification....Is anyone able to confirm this ???? I am looking at the 2009-2011 rear bumpers....

Its not like the 06-08 ML where you just have to change out the apron to do quad tips.

If his ML550 already has the "sport package" AMG rear bumper, then it's likely that all he'd need to do is switch out the diffuser area.
