Feel sorry for you bro. But isn't that a good excuse to change to bodykit? Just joking no offense!

C&C should cost you a bomb. Try MBM or BL. Or any bros here that have changed to bodykits might be willing to sell you their old stock bumpers.

Anyone?

[Guest sy69u]

if claiming the other party insurance, then go back 2 c&c. if paying on ur own, shop around a few good shops 1st before deciding as u r paying yourself.

thanx for your reply bro...how much does it cost? or any recommendations? I knocked it myself during reverse so it has to be out from my pocket...

Rear bumper and lights is it? Should cost quite abit I think.

If you're going to replace the rear lights, can consider to change to the rear LED lights, shouldn't cost much more than the stock lights.

Got one bro here changed to the LED rear lights lio, maybe he wanna sell his stock lights to you?

calling ah wong!!!!

ah wong reporting..

yeah, i do have a spare original rear lights but no intend to sell it for the exact reason "touch wood" that i may need it in future.

the original LED version (C230 and above) cost roughly about $500.. can check with benzline.. better to change to this one..

as for the bumper, properly is good time to change to AMG bumper.. i believe the cost would be about the same.. check with benzline too.. look for eric tan.

Wow!!! Sad to hear that. Mine is only 2 months and last weekend, while reversing hit onto a Tree, rear bumper damaged.

I actually hit the Tree stub (solid 6" dia branch, that was only 8" above ground) that was not properly cut off by the management of the Club. Spoke to the management nicely and request them to cut off properly to avoid similar accident. They kind off transfer me to one dept to another, finally ask me to speak to Security!!!!!.....so guys be careful when parking at Marina Raffles-Tuas

[Guest pia]

What was your damage? I paid C&C almost $1.7k for my rear bumper last month.

[Guest wobbles]

This happened to my previous W211 - the car was then barely a month old, hadn't even clocked 1000km, still had the plastic seat covers, and I was on the PIE, when the cars in front of me jammed brake.

Of course I jammed the super-duper-dunno-what-SBC-before-they-recalled-it brake, and the E screeched to a complete stop.

Only for the Lancer Evo to ram into my behind, damaged the Parktronics, and dented the bumper.

C&C quoted me $4K to fix it, and we claimed it against the Evo driver's insurers. Expensive leh, even though insurance paid for it.

4k is actually not that bad...

My previous beemer got whacked from behind - not very serious but still needed to change bumper and shock absorbers - PML charged the other guy 8k+

Original Stock bumper cost $1,080 (b4 GST) bought from supplier. If you want to change to AMG original will cost you about $1650 (before GST). All these is without respray and fitting in of brackets. Original stock bumpers all come in grey.
