I am assuming you are asking about the C32 Sedan... correct ?



# 190 above corresponds to Part # 203 880 02 05 COVERING AIR INLET GRILLE.
You will also need qty. 3 of # 200 correspondng to Part # 000 000 00 05 27 SHEET METAL SCREWS GRILLE TO ENGINE HOOD.
I believe the Grille is color matched, so you will need your body paint code NO. as well after the Part #.

for example: A203 880 02 05 9723 would be for my Sedan.

NO.0008 I ALLANITE GREEN
NO.0015 I DESIGNO PURPLE (MICA)
NO.0020 I DESIGNO-ORANGE

NO.0033 I DESIGNO-MOCCA BLACK
NO.0034 I DESIGNO VARICOLOR 3 (GOLD-GREEN)
NO.0036 I DESIGNO VARICOLOR 4 (GRAY BLUE)
NO.0037 I DESIGNO MYSTIC RED
NO.0041 I DESIGNO GRAPHITE GREEN
NO.0042 I DESIGNO HAVANNA
NO.0043 I I 043U
NO.1623 I LIGHT IVORY

NO.5846 I FJORD BLUE
NO.5904 I MIDNIGHT BLUE
NO.5941 I ARAGONITE BLUE
NO.6816 I ANDRADITE GREEN METALLIC
NO.6891 I ALEXANDRITE GREEN METALLIC
NO.7747 I PEARLITE GRAY
NO.7753 I TEKTITE GRAY
NO.9040 I BLACK
NO.9143 I SNOW WHITE
NO.9189 I EMERALD BLACK

NO.9723 I CUBANITE (PEWTER) SILVER
NO.9744 I BRILLIANT SILVER METALLIC

i don't know what kind of plastic, but it's plastic.
The EPC doesn't say what material the thing is made of.

Don't forget to look at the (2) hood vents that the SLK and SL use. I think I know where your going with this and the SL/SLK vents crossed my mind at one point.
