E55 (or regular E AMG kit). The 07-09 AMG bumper and E63 bumper are shaped a little differently, plue the E63 has vents on the side.

Thats my brother's GS, I took it to autocon for him. its a S65 AMG front bumper chop and molded to fit the GS, we shaved the side vents. The rear is also the S65 rear bumper and the sides are Wald sports chopped and shaped to a shape that matched the front and rear. Took about a little over 2 weeks to complete the full kit. All the work was done in our own backyard.
