went to ED today and snap some pics. They will need to tweak it a bit for some gaps and for the hood latch to clear easily

mike thank you so much for updating everyone with pics. We are going to adjust one of the slats so that the hood latch sits properly when the hood is popped. Thank you to Mike for coming down and posting the pics. I'll keep you all updated as this part is adjusted and soon available for sale.

Saw that too on Ebay. Contacted a buyer who bought a similar one off the same seller for their W204 and asked about fitment. They told me that the fitment was horrible and pieces had to be cut in order to get it to fit and it still did not fit right. Maybe the reason why the seller hasn't posted pics of the grill installed.

funny thing is that extreme dimensions uses a overseas company to manufacture their parts, so i think that company is selling that product straight from manufacture, cause if you see and search more, more and more of that w203 morrello kit is on there

Actually we are in full control of our manufacturing facilities overseas. It's just like having a branch of the company just in a different location. A lot of no name companies do exactly what you said and just buy direct from overseas and send over containers of product. But we develop these parts here, we manufacture them overseas at our facilities and distribute from our So Cal location.

I'm going to see about getting the go ahead to start and have a final end date for taking orders of these parts now that we've had the test fit.

I'll post a link to a new thread with the group buy details and end date. Keep your eye out and all of you on the list the time is near to placing your order. Thanks for you patience!
