Looking to purchase a used AMG bumper, what all do I need for the swap?
So just got rear ended last night. Looks like I will be getting about 2k from the other party's insurance. I'd like to start converting my plain Jane s550 to the more modern amg kit. Going to start with the rear. I'd like to go used being that I'm going to paint anyway. Hopefully Will leave enough for the front end and side skirts.
Now, when I look online, the used bumpers look to have missing components both on the inside and outside of the bumper. What all should I be looking for to make sure this will be a smooth install? Pictures and input are appreciated.

You can buy an aftermarket s63 rear bumper with everything included for about $1k. You'll also need some amg exhaust tips to fill in the exhaust cut out also. If you're looking for just the normal (pre- facelift amg bumper) I have mine for sale if you're interested?
