I have a Euro 300TD which has had US bumpers installed. When I got the car, both Euro headlamps were broken.
I replaced them with US light assemblies, simply because that's what I already had as spares for my 240D. At least I have the option of upgrading the sealed-beams to Hellas or Cibies.
I recently snagged a complete set of decent Euro-wagon bumpers from the Virginia Beach Pick-N-Pull, for future restoration of my TD to it's original appearance.
I love the look of the Euro-bumpers, but since I have to share area roads with motorists of varying driving skills, I'm keeping the US bumpers for now.
Happy Motoring, Mark
