How much does the MHD CL grill cost in the US?

I called MH-Dezent last day, the owner Manfred Heidacker quote me:
-609 Euro for the grill (part nr. 203-1012)
-71,34 Euro for painting
-89,32 for installation

suprise enough his company is only 15min away from where i live.

It's simple to install. Don't pay anyone a penny for that! And the painting is only for the bottom fiberglass piece. If your car is black like mine, you can get away with no painting at all!

For $360? I would just get the Taiwanese CL grille (one with lower star) on eBay for $180 instead. Your grille is nice because you've painted the border, but I still think it's better without that border.

Agreed. If 14 people are really down for the group buy when formymercedes.com gets theirs done, that will get us a $225 price each. Now we've just gotta wait and see what they come up with...

Thanks for the compliments.
My ride is a humble C180
I am out of town at the moment.
I will take some side pics. when I am back home.
I've chosen this "CL style" grill cos with the outer frame
IMHO it's neat, easy plug & play installation and the quality of
material is very good.

I could have got the Taiwanese grill for under $160 over here.
I've seen it & IMHO, U save on spray painting but
the whole assembly is "flimsy" & the plastic/chrome looks cheap.
I like the hollow star than the star with the laminated background.
Like I said, it's just my own humble opinion.

Upgrades
Bi-Xenons, clear fog lamps, clear side blinkers, Illuminated door sills,
CL style grill, Chrome Door shells, Chrome Boot Handle, Flat bonnet emblem,
Brabus Single Monobloc VI 17". Michelin Pilot Preceda 225/45/17 FR Tires,
Schaetz Exhaust Tips, Sony XES Z-50 Audio System

Upgrades on order
Full Lorinser Edition Bodykit c/w rear spoiler & roof wing.
Lorinser Sport Exhaust.

Possible future upgrades
AMG C32 Brake upgrades, Kleemann ECU upgrade,
Eilbach Spring Kit

For sale: 3 mths. old Schaetz Exhaust Tips for 2001+ W203 Sedan
