Source for Euro lights and bumpers? - Benzworld.org

I really like the looks of the euro style headlights and bumpers. Since both my bumpers are dented and one of the plastic pieces that go around my headlights is broken and needs to be replaced anyway, why not convert to the euro style stuff?

Is there a good (and preferably inexpensive) source for the needed parts? How hard is it to change the bumpers and lights?

They have the euro lights for $595 pair but do sell remanufactured and used parts also so maybe give them a gingle.

Good luck on finding the bumpers though and if you do PM me[:D]

The light upgrade is fairly straight forward but when you remove your bumpers,there may be an unwanted surprise waiting for you.....yes rust[V]

You will need to plug the old bumper shock holes if you exchange for euro bumpers[xx(]

$595 for just the headlights???

*THUD!* (sound of me passing out and hitting the floor)

I don't even want to think what the bumpers and hardware cost, even if I can find them. Well, I guess the euro stuff just went on the proverbial "back burner" for a long while! [:(!]

Thanks for the link though. It looks like they have the carpet and some other things I need, although $1075 seems a bit much for a dash pad!

You can just get the cover from them which makes it look like a new one for about $100.I did this on my W123 and looks like I put in a $1000 dash in[:D]Not to mention avoiding that nightmare of removing and risking cracking your windscreen.

I didn't even think of that. Thanks! (BTW, my windshield is already cracked but that's another story.)
