Who's Car is this and where can I get this grill



This pic was posted on the non amg 203 forum more than a year ago, and someone revived the post today. I like this single bar grille. does anyone know where these can be ordered?

You mean this grill?

http://www.55tech.com/index.php?main...d84f684728351c
1 Fin AMG style sports grille for 2003~2009 CLK models, not for CLK55 AMG. fits on all other non-AMG models. Direct replacement for your stock grille. Authentic Mercedes Benz Star is included. This grill will also fit on W203 C55 AMG

The C55 has a CLK front end, that's why it fits.

I ordered and returned that grill at some point. It does not fit the C55 perfectly - it leaves a unsightly gap (IMHO) above the grill, which I could not live with.

That gap above the grille isn't just on the C55, it's on all W209's. This is a knock off SL grille for the W209's, that's just how the grille fits.

Yup, there's a thread here somewhere that shows the gap. I almost bought this grill but didn't because of the gap.

I can kinda see the gap, in the pic posted. But might not be as noticeable on a Diamond Black car

Could always cut out all the mesh, so it is just the single blade... might weaken the integrity of the grill though.

The conversion to a CLK from end for the C55 is not that hard, a few brackets and of course, the bumper. It ran him about $1000 if I recall??
