Call and speak with Jade and complain about your problem. He can be reached at Mercedes Benz of Palm Springs. 760 328 6525. Have him paged. If they say he isn't at the Mercedes Dealership then have them transfer you to the BMW dealership. He is the big cheese. I am mad because they did something to me just yesterday and it made me angry. The more complaints the less problems. Tell him that I sent you to buy from the site but you have had no response from them. Tell him if they don't respond you will get in touch with Corporate.

I called him and left a message. I also called the MB parts dept and they transferred me to a person who dealt with the website. Left him a message also and haven't heard back yet. These parts are the only ones I am waiting on now. Hopefully they will let me know what's going on by Monday. So far I am not happy that no one replied to my email inquiring about the order status 4 days ago.

One question, see the small cover plates that are missing from the bumper I have purchased. Will I be able to use the ones in my existing 2008 bumper or will I have to buy new ones?

I just got the parts from VIPGermanParts today. Now all I need is clarification that the two holes above will be ok with my existing 2008 bumper fittings..

One more question, I got these lights:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/151293488396...84.m1439.l2649

and when I gave them to my mechanic he said they dont fit. I was wondering if you knew the part numbers for the LED Drls that would fit with this AMG bumper?
