Front bumper from Prior Design.

Hello,

I purchased a Piror desig bumper for W211.
Is there anyone here on the forum who have mounted a bumper like this?
I have had the front bumper on the car and checked the fit. but how do you possibly mount the foglights?

I don't think you can you can use your oem foglight. It look like the new bumper is designed to use their foglight mount onto their grille.

If the foglight is from Prior Design then you shouldn't have any problem. Why don't you contact Prior Design?

I have spoken to Prior Designs in Germany, where I bought the front bumper, but they could not either help me or explain to me how they mounted the front bumper. I was told that I could use the insides parts of the original front bumper, but this is not true. fog lights I had to buy from dectate because Prior Design had stopped selling them with the bumper, but the problem is that the ring round fog lights was not with the ligts. Prior desig told me to make them myself or at a paint shop.
I was not told I had to make holes for parking sensors and light washes by my self.

Havnt u watched West coast customs on hommie? They always have to modify it in some way to get the ting on the car. If I were you, Id take it into a body shop and let them do it.

This is the way of Prior Design doing business (get money first problem is our). Be careful guys who plan to buy. I am the one who got problem too. I purchased SL widebody but they shipped the wrong part and never get a new piece to replace until now!
