BTW, if I were going to go to all the work involved in putting the front fenders/bumper of the V8 onto the 200, I'd also do the rear fenders and rear doors (V8 rear fender flare extends into the rear door).

Unless anyone knows of anywhere to buy aftermarket or any other kind of bumpers from other cars that will bolt directly on to a 200?

What's your issue with the original bumper system?

I just dont like the look of the 200 bumper, hood or lights. Just personal opinion.

It wont. And the euro bumper pretty much looks the same, just shorter. And IMHO the v8 clips just never look right on a 5k/200. The non turbo lights look terrible, e-codes or not, the fender flares on the v8 make the rears look puny, and its alot of work to actually make the car uglier. Unmolested 20v's are gettin hard to find, dont ruin it !
