I was wondering where you got your grill and how much it cost.

It's the MHD CL Grille, aka Expression grille. I got it from this supplier who took months to get it to me, so I don't recommend them now. Call up Evosport. It's around $500-600. Don't know what's their latest pricing.

Btw, there are different grilles out there. Make sure you are getting the one with the big star and not the smaller star one. Mine looks a lot better than the smaller one you see on ebay (IMO).

I would be interested too :Group Buy

If we could get it for like $499, that would be awesome. They are made in Taiwan, maybe we could go direct to them or do it through Evo.

I doubt you can get it for less than 500 nowadays. You need to have a MAJOR amount of buyers. I wish you luck on your Gbuy as Oggle set one up and everyone ranked out and I set one up as a courtesy and everyone ranked out too(well only like 5-6 bought). You might as well work the best deal alone....

Yeah thats usually the problem on high $$ mod group buys. Pople always act like they are interested, but they all bail.
Still worth a shot though,

I'm in for sure. As long as we're getting one that is the same as Kwong's shown in the link below.

https://mbworld.org/forums/showthrea...ghlight=grille

He said he paid $550 at Evosport by contacting Ben. The star in the centre is supposedly not graphic, it's 3D with mesh in the space between the 3 arrows. There's is a bottom piece that you have to take to a body shop to paint to your body color.

Whoever will put the order together, please PM me to get things rolling.

The install is easy. Just pop the hood, unscrew the old grille and put in the new one. Doesn't get much easier.

Only thing is you will have to paint the bottom piece of the CL grille if your car isn't black. Mine is black so I didn't paint it.

It only cost me $35 bucks to have the MB dealer paint the lower support for my CL grill from EVO. I'd highly recommend getting it painted.

It was an easy install and I love the grill.
