WTB: Front Bumper for SL-55 AMG

I am looking for a stock front bumper in good condition for my SL-55. Please contact me if you have something that might work.

I am thinking that anything from 2003-2008 would work but I can't be certain of that.

Thanks
Kyle

look on ebay
03-08 will work, you need to look at the sl55,sl65 bumpers, not regular 500,550. Theres regular 55 and perf pkg 55.
If you want performance pkg type with side vents they are alltogather different, more parts to buy. The 07 and 08 had louver type vents, more rare. If you want to update and make more rare use that one. If you want plain mesh style they are probably more available. if you switch to louver they have different inner braces and grills so you have to buy more parts

I appreciate the information. I am open to either scenario but I would probably prefer the 03-08 SL55/65 option.

I have a brand new 07-08 SL55 bumper. Don't think it fits 2003-06 SL55s tho. Search my posts, there are a ton of pics.

okbarnett is right - there are some small differences in the grills & brackets of the 2007/08 bumper. It would fit.

The bumper cover that chuck z has is a great deal (especially if you have a black car). It does have sensors in the bumper. I don't know if your car has sensors or not, but the bumpers where produced with and without sensors.
