Is this factory front bumper?
Hello guys,

I've found two models from 2008 with two different front bumpers. Take a look at those side shark vents in first model.
in both cases, they claim that these are factory bumpers.


shark vents

without side vents

Pretty sure the white is OEM and the silver is aftermarket. You can tell by the shape of the fog lights

Silver is an E63 (you'll notice the vents in several M156 powered vehicles) and the white is just a facelifted Sport bumper.

Chest Rockwell is correct, the Silver is a 2007-2009 E63 AMG and the White is either a E350 or E500. But both are made for the W211 platform.

I'd guess neither are factory. If you're in the US, OEM bumpers have marker lights in them. None of the aftermarket ones that I've seen come with the lights as that's a US only thing.

Here's my E63 with the stock bumper and clear lenses, which makes them harder to see in the pic.

So, during any conversion jobs both of them should fit to any W211 facelifted platform.

Yes absolutely, if they are factory and not some aftermarket crap from China or Taiwan.
