All original AMG bodykits came with the front spoiler, because it had their logo in the middle.

I don't think that car came stock wit hthe body kit. Thats the AMG aftermarket Body kit I'm sure. The fenders stick out way too much for that to be stock.

AMG offered both a spoiler for the widebody and one for the standard bumper. They look essentially the same, the pic was just generic example of what an AMG front spoiler looks like.

I would bet ebay or ebay.de would be a good resource. Just keep vigilent. Possibly a wrecked car as well.

I've seen another white AMG car without that front end as well. I personally like the front AMG spolier.

Yes, an AMG spoiler would complete your kit quite nicely.

My best guess is that the first owner in Europe probably ran the front end into a parking stop or something like that. Because, the AMG front spoiler was avaiable in '86 and it is common for spoiler to meet their demise on parking stops and ditches.
