"Face Lift" components?

I am thinking about repainting my S-Class, it was keyed awhile back, and there are several rock chips that are starting to show. So while I'm thinking about getting it painted I'm also thinking about getting new bumper covers to make it look completely updated. Can anyone tell the best route to go, should I just buy a kit, or stock pieces from a 2003+ model?

I guess the cheapest way would be to source a wrecked car at the junkyard and pullthe hood and bumper from it.

To face lift yor car, you will need:
1. A new hood and grille
2. A New front bumper with trims
3. New grill peices
3. Maybe side skirts i'm not 100% on that.

The rear bumper is the same except for the littleflair at the very bottom.
Only the tail lights changed in the back.but you already have that.

I'm thinking about 3K for the bumper and side skirts from the dealer,
The grill peices are under 100 bucks,
No idea on the trim peices, hood, but ou can get grills from member who changed theirs out.
