Question on bumper
I have owned a silver 1999 e55 for about 2 years. About a week ago someone banged so hard into my front bumper that the bumper trim cracked into multiple pieces and I found them on the floor.

The only pieces remaining attached to the car on the end pieces by the fenders.

I ordered a new part online and have painted it.

If I remove the 2 end pieces can I install the new bumper trim without needing to take the entire bumper off?

Thank you.

The bumper impact strip can be replaced on the car without the bumper removal
as the early 210s have ONE impact where the 2000 on have two

First, sorry to hear about the damage man.

Secondly, doesn't your insurance cover this?
