How to facelift SL55 Rear?

I have an SL55 and would like to facelift the rear end to that of the SL63.

Please can someone confirm the list of parts I need to buy? - I do have parking sensors by the way.

I already have:

- SL63 spoiler
- SL63 rear lights

What else do I need to buy? And can anyone recommend the best priced store to buy it from.

(Ideally I would like the stock AMG diffuser but in a carbon finish, nothing too big like some aftermarket ones).

Rory

Rory, stupid question:


But have you called your local Mercedes dealership and verify the mounting is all the same, and get a list of the parts FOR the SL63?

Well I saw a number of people on a few forums with facelifted SL55s - actualy SL55k on this site has done so I believe.

So hoping someone with experience of doing this can clarify whether I can just go and buy the original SL63 parts and it will fit - or whether there is infact more to it and you have to buy an aftermarket version for example.

you just need the rear bumper with diffuser in the middle.

not sure if the exhaust are different.
