I'm sure if this has been asked before. I have a C180 Avantgarde Spec 2018 model. I want to change the avantgarde front grille to the Elegance Grille. Is this a direct swap of the grilles or does one need to change the entire front bumper. Frm some pics that I saw on the net, the bumpers look the same. I reside in South Africa, I'm sure the specs are different in the different countries. The look I'm going for
Will attach a pic of the car as well as a second pic( the look I'm going for.
You guys input will be greatly appreciated.
From the look of it it is not a direct swap. The elegance grille covers the full front. I recommend you go AMG since your car is Avantgarde. You have the advantage to use AMG items (direct swap). Avantgarde in the middle east (where i live) is also called AMG line. Below are pictures of my car before and after I made the swap to C43 diamond grille. Another recommendation is to change your headlights Before After 1
After 2
Dats the best video it has all necessary steps. For me its a hell of a job. I would have bought the Elegance instead of buying an Avantgarde then swaping its full front to Elegance. The cost of the parts alone would be huge.
