Facelift Question

I would like to upgrade the front and rear bumper covers and side rocker panels on my 08 S550 to the 2010-13 front and rear bumper cover to the sport or AMG style rockers but I have a few questions are the mounting brackets different within the years of 2007-2014 and are the 2010-2013 tail lights plug and play?

theres a guy on named gary people buy his stuff. he was out of kits and grills when i had emailed him. I got a full amg kit with grill off ebay. front fitment was good, side skirts arent to bad, but rear fit like ****. also the grill they had to send me new one. but new one fit right. i didnt install my kit but then again the shop didnt have issues with mounting hardware or anything. I got the newer led style tail lights as well off ebay. they said its plug and play, but the shop had to use their computer to get it to work correctly. i dont care what anyone says any aftermarket kit you buy from anyone form here or ebay isnt gonna fit 100% like your stock bumpers and rocker panels. a lil adjusting and you will be fine.
