Will '03 CLK grille fit C240/320/32?

It looks like it would. I have no idea how much it costs, but it looks identical to the $600 MH-Dezent grille.

I dont think so. The design of the hood is different.

Jim Banville · 02-10-2003, 08:56 PM

Yeah, but the outer shape of the grille is the same, no?

If you look at the car sideways, the CLK has a steeper hood line.

Why don't you try the C230K grille?.... or you've already considered that...

Nope not the same. That one is the generic ones being sold that I think doesn't make the car look that good.

i think Jim wanted the "frameless" grille like on teh coupes.

FrankW · 02-11-2003, 04:50 AM

the new CLK grille is much wider than the C-class's grille I think by looking at those two pics

oggle · 02-11-2003, 06:08 AM

I'm interested in the CL grill for my C320 also, but at $600 a pop it's just WAY too expensive.

I'm guessing MH-Dezent just takes one from another MB vehicle and shaves it thinner so it'll fit. In fact that's what it looked like when I saw it close-up once.

the '03 clk grille looks just like the 2002 c-coupe grille.
so maybe the coupe will fit.

If you look closely at the picture, you will notice the C grill is attached to the bonnet. The CLK grill is attached to the bumper cover. It just doesn't look like a simple fit.
