2007 Mercedes Benz SL55 AMG kompressor
2007 Mercedes Benz SL55 AMG

Hi Everyone,

I picked up a 2007 Mercedes Benz SL55 AMG Kompressor convertible Black on Red interior.

Unfortunately it’s been in a collision and I bought it as a project/summer car. I do currently also own a mint 2006 MB S55 AMG Kompressor and am pretty familiar with the costs, maintence etc of owing an AMG.

If anyone can give me some options on websites/vendors/ American/Canadian doesn’t matter at this point on anything to point me in the right direct other then the dealer. That will be my last option of course.

I need a front bumper, rear bumper and passenger side front and rear headlight and taillight assembly’s.

MB direct wants approximately $2500 for front bumper $2500 for rear and $1500 a light assembly. $8000 plus tax i thought I would give the forum a try first

Thank you, have a great day
cheers, Johnny

Ebay, tons of parts for $3-400. use this opportunity to upgrade to the new SL63 rear bumpers, looks so much better.


post a pic of the car now, to see what else you might need.

Ebay

Even on EBay I am having trouble with the headlight and taillight for the passenger side. The same seller that is selling one for $1000 is selling Two for $1300 and has tons of bad feedback and reviews. Bumper I had no luck at all, i will keep searching hard and make a few calls when I’m off on Wednesday of this week.

Oh you've got the SL65 front bumper, that's gonna be a lot harder to find. This is one on ebay for 1300

The rear just search "R230 Rear bumper" you'll see them

What's the difference between 07-08 SL65 bumpers and 05-06 bumpers?

Is it just me or is the right rear wheel not straight? I'd take care of that before tackling all the cosmetic issues.
