C43 2019 Panamericana Grill

Hello there, I’m hoping someone that someone who’s had a similar experience will be able to help with my current issue. I have looked around the forum, there are similar issues but don't think a solution was given to fix this issue arising.

I have a 2019 C43 AMG Sedan model with 360 camera and distronic system.

I have recently fitted the CKS aftermarket Panamericana grill to my car.

The fitting has been fine however my issue has been with the 360 camera system. It looks to be distorted from the front portion and not stitching together. This also results in the yellow guidelines you see on the image not being level with the level.

I contacted Mercedes about a recalibration but they said that the calibration would only change the yellow lines but not the front portion of the camera as this is more due to the angle of the camera mount. I have contacted CKS Performance about the issue but they outright deny that there's nothing wrong with the grill and it's due to the actual fitting. The grill has been refitted and the problem persists, I don't think CKS are a helpful bunch from what I've seen around the forum.

The cause of it appears to be due to the design of the grill where the camera mount is. I have a few questions as a result of this:

1) Has anyone else had a similar issue and were you able to solve this?

2) Have they reverted back to the OEM grill due to this issue?

3) Is there a OEM GT grill that is compatible with the 2019 C43 Sedan. If so, can you provide the part numbers?
