Will this cover my existing bumper sensor holes and fog light cutouts?

This bumper is molded with factory-location openings for fog lights and sensor cutouts. Before installation, verify your vehicle's existing sensor and fog hole positions match the cover's openings. If your setup requires different placements, you can carefully drill or enlarge the openings to suit your needs—just measure twice and use a step bit for clean results.

Can I paint this bumper before or after installation?

Most builders prefer to paint off the vehicle for a cleaner finish and easier masking. Sand the primer surface with 220-grit or higher, apply your base coat and clear, then install once fully cured. You can also install first and paint in place if you mask surrounding panels carefully—either approach works, so choose what fits your workflow best.

What's the difference between this cover and the standard CLK bumper?

The AMG Look version incorporates a deeper front air intake profile and integrated lower valance styling that matches the performance bumper geometry. It's a visual upgrade that gives the front end a more aggressive stance while using the same factory mounting footprint as the stock cover.
