So i bought this 2003 w211 AMG last year (93k miles/150k Km) now. I should definitely have done a pre purchase inspection on it, i just wanted it so pulled the trigger. Since i bought it i've changed the rear air bags, both batteries, air compressor, aux battery relay, alternator, new tires. But now, i don't know if i did this off the line, but my rear bumper has started to come off. See pics. I just wanted to know does this look fixable? If not, where could i find a good replacement? Suvneer? I just want to see what my options are before i make a decision. In my opinion it doesn't look beyond repair, but i don't know ish. Any help or guidance would be wayyyyy cool. Btw I am in Canada.
You could always try calling local junk yards and seeing if they have an E55 with a bumper. If it matches your color then you don't have to get it painted. You can also check ebay.
Thanks Gary, i contacted your Canadian partner and they said they had none available? Do you know if they'll be in stock anytime soon or would it be better for me to order direct from you?

Yeah i thought about that, the only thing is in Canada it'll be harder to find a wrecker that has one. Same thing with ebay.ca. Thanks.
I am no expert either but to me that looks repairable, or at least worth a try. Use some thin plastic sheeting, trim it to reinforce (and complete) the tabs, JB Weld it on, and use new attachment clips. All in this shouldn't cost you more than $25.
