These 2005 AMG foglights I got from Steve (MBenzNL) for approx $185 or so.
They are direct replacements only if you have the AMG front bumper on a non-AMG car. For the C55, these are just an upgrade to last years fog lights. Should be a straight swap.

I am installing an AMG front bumper (B6 603 6039) which requires new AMG foglights, so I opted for these really nice looking ones, as opposed to those found on the C32.

Hi,
you will need to ask Harris at HARTON MOTORWERKS, because his price for the front & rear AMG COUPE bumpers was a special during the last week of September. I don't know what his current price could be.

Wow! I thought it was a CLK until I looked closer. I'm not a fan of chromed factory-style wheels, but the car looks nice!

it's the 2005 facelift grille. Stock C-Coupe perforated grille.
Since there weren't that many 2005 C-Coupes in the USA, they are a bit rare to see.
