does anyone have the part number of the silvery stripes right below the headlamps within the lower bumper (depicted with arrows)? If these are available in UK only, I'm sure I can find means to import them.




S-class has similar, and I'd love to put those on mine!

They are standard on the Sport model, not on the AMG Line in the UK. I think the model descriptors vary across markets here we have SE (base), Sport and AMG Line (I think that is sport in U.S.?)

That does not appear to be the sports model as the angle of the lower grills is wrong.

Why does MB make it so confusing?

I guess they just don't legislate for folks like us, looking across markets.... As far as MB are concerned (or care about, TBH) anyone in the UK only sees UK cars/brochures etc and people in North America only sees US/Canadian, etc, etc..

Hello, Mercedes - there's a new fangled thing out there called the Internet!

C220d Avantgarde
Over here (NL) they call the line "Avantgarde". With model year 2016 also over here the chrome strips are gone. When you want to replace them, you have to replace it including the black part behind it.
