BUMPERS
I am about ready to send the SD off to the body shop. The only thing I am lacking is the proper bumpers. I would like euro bumpers. I like the 560 SEC bumper with the fog lights also. What will fit? Any one know where to find them?

1981 300SD - ALDA adjusted, custom CCV, straight piped exhaust, 225/40/18 Michelins, 3 inch cut springs.
2005 E320 CDI - RennTech tuned no more. New Kleeman tunes downloaded and installed!!

I did a 560SEC front bumper and fog light converson on a 420SEL I once had.

You'll have to use your existing sedan bumper assembly and use only the plastic bumper cover from the SEC. (that's what I did)
Or use a complete SEC bumper assembly and swap out the chrome trim from your sedan.
Either way, the SCE bumper is not a direct swap....the grille on the sedan interferes with the chrome trim on the SEC bumper.
