Amg kit differences?

hi all,

are the pre-faclift(99-02) vs facelift (03-06) amg kits, specifically the front bumper, different?..it seems from pictures that the facelift bumpers are 'bigger/more aggresive' then the pre facelifts ones...and if they arent, what about fitment issues?

im planning on buying a amg kit for my 02 s430 and was wondering if i had to be careful if i have to watch out for the different types...also, any recommendations on best places to purchases the amg kit?

thanks

AFAIK The facelifted(03+) front bumper wont fit b/c the hood and grill are slightly different. The Sideskirts and rear bumper should fit without any problems.

I have no idea where to get a deal on these kits but MBworld Sponsor Neal@ Euroteck can help you
