Replacing Grill on C230 K SS with C230 K SC Grill
Has anyone tried to replace the grill on a 2005 C230 Kompressor Sport Sedan with the grill made for a 2005 C230 Kompressor Sport Coupe?

A local dealership approximated the price of the grill at $150. From what I can tell by looking at the grill at a dealership, the hood latch release will need to be replaced as well.

An image of the grill on the coupe is on MBUSA:

Sedan and Coupe do not share a single piece of sheet metal , so drop this idea.
