Help! Need C55 center mesh grille

Can anyone tell me where I can find a new or used center mesh bumper grille for my C55. I called the stealer and they want $365.! I've had no luck on eBay either. Any advice is appreciated!

Search this forum and the classifieds forum. I remember there being a post where someone was selling that grill a few months ago. gl

Do you mean the front bumper grill?
If so, I might have an extra one in my garage somewhere.
No promises. I have to clean it out next weekend. It's not new by any means but it should do the trick. If I find it, its yours, just pay for shipping.

I need the black wire mesh grill for the lower part of the front bumper between the fog lights. If you have an extra one that would be great! The thought of paying the stealer $365. for that part seems ridiculous.
Thank you & PM me if you find it!

Yeah, those things must be hand made in Italy or something. They're stupid expensive, even used they're expensive.

That is correct. The p/n for the OE C55 center mesh bumper grille is 203 885 08 53.

If any one is interested I have one allegedly from a 2006 C55 that is too wide for the 2005 C55, p/n A 230 885 17 53 (I bought it from lauer87 on this forum). Apparently, it is for SL's -- don't know if it will fit any other models.
