Hey guys, I need to know if the body parts from a '93 190e are easily swappable with an '85. Cosmetically there are some updates but it still looks like the '93 will fit on the '85. Body parts such as Door Panels Hood Trunk Fenders Both cars are 2.3 L I want to paint my car black but can't afford to right now, so I'm thinking of swapping out panels and parts from a black car, then painting whatever else is left, black. In my mind that should be a little bit cheaper, but I like to think I'm a little crazy. |

those parts should fit just remove the cladding and swap for the preface lift or just leave and add the missing bits to make her look like a face lift only thing is the bonnet a single washer one cant mind the date they changed but im sure they dont fit colour swap you will still have roof and rear wings lower boot section to paint and buy the parts it might add up to more than a full respray unless you have a donor car to hand |
