No, the C55 front grille will not fit on your C180. The grille is of a different shape and size. The C55 has different front end sheet metal than all other W203 C-class models.

The front hood is from the W209 CLK, and the front wings have more flared wheel arches than the standard model. The front bumper is also unique.

Unlike all other W203 models, the front grille of the C55 does NOT go up when you open the hood.
