ML500 - Can't find replacement bumper

[andydfc]

Hi there,

Well I have had a great new year, the girlfriend slammed the car into the wall and smashed my front bumper :Oops:
I have a 54 plate ML500, and I cannot seem to find a front bumper replacement online. My current car has the parking sensors, and the headlamp washer, but all the front bumpers I find do not have these.

Can anybody recommend where I may source a bumper replacement?

Thanks and regards,

Andy

Are the bumpers not the same just with the cut outs for the headlamp washers,and parking sensors, cut in afterwards?

I initially thought this, but after looking at a bumper on Ebay, there is nothing to indicate this. It is an expensive error if I tried this.

This is the one I found, which looks identical to my bumper, only my one has the small round sensor ports, and also the section on the top for the spray.

Have you asked at a local body shop re having your existing bumper plastic welded?

Think it's beyond that
