AMG front bumper in a no AMG line EQS?

Hi to all.
I recently bought an Electric Art (non AMG line) 450+ EQS, but i really prefer the look of the AMG front bumper compared to the Electric Art line, so i got a used and slightly scratched AMG front bumper that i will be painted and installed on the car.
The thing is the MB dealer i contacted to do the work, told me they were not sure the AMG front bumper could be intstalled on my car due to the fixings and the radiators position...
Anyone knows if this change can be easily made (like plug and play) or made at all?
Or do you have to mod something else to be able to install a AMG front bumper on a non AMG line EQS?
Any help with this is appreciated.
Thanks

Don't know the answer to your question. However, my non-AMG 450+ has an AMG front bumper. It came with the AMG interior and exterior enhancements, so that may mean there were modifications made when constructed. I'm sure the dealer knows the answer.

Are you doing the whole bumper or just the middle grille? There is a thread that someone have done the amg grille, and it fits well.

Ok, thank you.
But unlike yours, my 450+ is a no AMG interior or exterior (no AMG line), so that's the catch.

I'm doing the whole bumper and grille.
As far as i know the grille alone would't be a problem.

Mounting points are the same, due to sheer lack of desire from MB designer both lux and sport (AMG) exterior are the same there is no change in internals or body in whites

As a matter of fact AMG models too don’t get any more active aero of passive vents. I guess the wind tunnel has spoken

Thank you.
That would be perfect in this case.
Hope you are right.

Hope it works for you. The bumper is awesome. I don't have the grill, but I like it's looks. BTW, the AMG steering wheel is also fantastic,

I agree, the AMG bumper and grille looks much better.
But the bumper i bought comes with the stars grille, which, to me, looks better than the plain black grille i currently have.

Im doing something similar to my EQE. I loved the panamericana grill but not the AMG exterior package. My initial build was also for AMG interior package with but that’s not an acceptable build.

I sourced an AMG radiator cover looking for AMG neva grey wheel without the knobs. Doesn’t anyone know where I can look for the part numbers?

Thanks everyone who responded.
Yes, i can confirm the AMG front bumper and stars grill was a straight fit.

I really prefer the AMG front look

looks great OP.

If you happen to get either the 100W USB C package or Powered charge port install please let us know how to go about it including coding! I’d recall appreciate it!

I've tried the parts search online at various websites, but the search results always comes up with nothing. I recommend just calling the parts department of any MB dealership. They can quickly find the part number for you.

Ive tried this with 6 different deals with no help or luck. So thought I’d try it here.

I'm looking for part numbers for Electric open close charger flap(U59) ,and 100W USB charging (72B)

If you are able to find the part number do let me know

Package 72B 100W USB package gets you higher charging if power on USB C ports in the car upping it from 15W to 100W and also provides you an additional USB port in the arm rest console.

It’s likely produced and provided by Navitas for MB, I’m not able to find the part numbers that are part of Mercedes packages.

this is my first MB and hoping to learn the best way to get better info for parts.

Does the new star support driver assist?

How did the car look initially from the factory do you have a pic?

Sure, everything works the same as before.
They just took some time to calibrate everything.

Here's how it looked before.

EQS 450+
Looks awesome! Congrats, and glad it worked out. I have that grill and bumper on my 450+ (AMG line) and just love the looks. It is so much better than the original.

The AMG rear bumper is just slightly different.
It has a small "vent" on each side (that don't have any funtion) and slightly different difuser.
I look nicer, but it's not worth the cost and the hassle to make the change, IMO.

I wish there where more aftermarket parts for the EQS. The only one I found was Brabus, but they are very expensive with their CF spoilers and others parts. It is not worth it.

Hey your car would match the digital representation. I still don’t get why nonAMG cars don’t get them represented digitally
