2007 C280 4Matic Front Grille - Replacement

I'm a newbie here so I apologize in advance. I have a 07' C280 4Matic (w203) and I just took a nice chunk of ice to my grille thx to the plow truck in front of me. Oh how I love Minnesoooota. Anyway, I would like to replace my severly cracked factory grille with an aftermarket one, preferably one with the Star emblem in the middle. I see many grilles online but after reading the fine print when I'm about to order, it says fits 2001-2006 even though it comes up fitting for a 2007. I'm fine w/ 3 or 4 slates, chrome or black.

Does anybody know for sure a place online I can order a replacement grille that will fit my car?

I sincerely appreciate any insight.

I would suggest that you buy from ebay try teh seller 55tech on ebay he has a good collection and his quality is excellent too and pricing is very competative......if you are doing this for the first time, remember that you will need an extended latch lever too.........there is a very nice DIY on how to change the latch and there are some sellers that are selling the gril as a complete package with the extendede lever and emblem and all...........

cheers....PM me if you need any help I have done this 2 times alreday..........hehehe lololol

Grill breaks good new style grill new look for the car........... violla!!!!!!!!!!!!

Newbie...Plz Help

Well, someone that took my car without permission wreaked and damaged the radiator and front end, there is also a dent to the passenger rear side. I will like to find and add a new grill with the Mercedes emporium, replace the rims, and replace the rear panel.
