jerry, yes, I have the one they sale on Ebay but it is different!!!....The grille is different and the star is smaller.

take a look at this pic.

the one I have has the same grille as the top image but with a small star in the center.

I am looking for the grille you see in the 230, it has two wider lips on the grille and the start is bigger. Just like yours man!!!

I just placed a bid on one they are selling on Ebay.

To be honest with you I realzed after I placed the bid that the star is actually painted. I think this looks kind of cheap.

I thought the start was raised. Anybody knows where I can get this?

No lorinsercclass has a MHDezent grill:p

Miami Guy you just purchased(what we have come to name)the 'taiwanese grill'. Very nice actually and definitely cheaper AND nicer looking than the 'ebay grill' BUT the star is painted on...I dont think you can swap the symbol out for the raised star. Evosport carries the Expression grill-just hope your bid fails and just place your order for one.

Yes sir that is the one I am talking about. It is produced by Expression and it was formerly distrubuted by MH Dezent. As far as cost you can contact evosport(I believe retail is 620)and shipping...ummm...a lot of stamps

Formymercedes finally got their CL style grill!!!

I just placed my order for the CL style grill and flat emblem. Jerry was very nice about it and sd it should get here by wed or thursday. total came out 249+24+14(shipping). He only has 16 left in black, he's getting 20more silver ones in 2 weeks. I can't wait so i just placed the order for the black ones. so if anyone's been waiting for these grills better hurry.

Please post pics after your installation is done, I found another web site www.deutschmotors.com selling another CL style big star for w203 which looks cools as well. The grille for w203 looks like the one for w211 in formymercedes.com.

The biggest difference is that the W211 has 5 bars, while W203 only has 4. The same company manufactured both grilles though.

Trust me, there's a world of difference in quality. The best thing about this grille versus the Expressions is that it actually has the correct mounting points because it was specifically designed to fit our cars. I don't blame those who spent way too much on the other grille for trying to convince themselves it was a good buy though!
