S 550 sport package body kit conversion to S63 AMG body kit

I just bought a 2007 S550 with the AMG sport package. Is there an easy way to convert the existing front and rear bumpers to look more like the S63 AMG body kit? The main differences that I notice are:

1. the front bumper has slits next to the wheel wells with added mesh and
2. the rear bumber has room for double exhaust

Or will these require that I replace the current front and rear bumpers with AMG ones?

Thanks

Yes you will have to replace the front and rear bumpers. I addition for certain you will need to replace the front side marker lights, the center mesh grill in the front bumper, the plastic grills around the fog lights, perhaps the fog lights and maybe some internal absorber/reinforcement parts.

for the front bumper you need to change every thing (side markers, fog lights, all the grilles) and for the rear bumper you will only need to change the center black plastic and it comes in 2 parts that will cost about $300

2007 S550 AMG with ABC
I had a detailed quote from a Body shop that does work for my dealership for the S65 front bumper conversion. There is alot of stuff that you may not be aware off that needs to be changed when switching to the S65 bumper (including impact foam), harness depending on if you have parktronic/radar. Bottom line is that it was $3700 to get it done properly including painting.

The rear black cutout is $75 Euro and the S63 Quad Exhaust is 1600 Euro. Send an email to mbenznl@gmail.com as he can ship worldwide.
