anyone know where I can buy a 507 grille?

the form and fitment are the same, but the grille is black with the exception of the MB star. it's what i'm trying to achieve, but don't want to paint the stock one nor vinyl wrap it.

They have chrome strips + a chrome star. The one you saw was likely already vinyl wrapped.
Curious, why so against wrapping? You'd rather spend a ridiculous amount of money on a new grille rather than 10 bucks for vinyl?

I have one from 55tech (single fin) and it's vinyl'd...looks amazing and has held up great, I had all the chrome deleted on my car with vinyl and it's been through a ton of car washes and details and has held up amazing

The star is an ML star, however. Select black frame.

thanks for the suggestions. I can't find the C63 grill on the website. only C63-style grills for non-C63's.
I know the OEM grill is expensive, but I'm just not a fan of vinyl wrapping.no offense to anyone who has it intended, but it wont hold up long against the heat in Houston and cleaning of bugs from road trips. I'd also hate to think that there is a corner, somewhere, maybe just somewhere, that may be peeling, cut unevenly, frayed, etc. just don't want to cut corners.

is the one I have on my car...P.S the vinyl is fine with heat...it's 25c+ every day where I am right now and it's fine, no corners peal because the glue on the vinyl is retarded strong..I've tried pealing an area to test it

Who are these people saying that the 507 is full chrome on the grill? Pull up any photo of a 507 c63 from google, and look closely. The top and bottom rail of the grill are blacked out, only the center rail + star are chrome. The Day Run Lights have been blacked out too. I replicated the look of the 507 using plastidip, and it turned out pretty nice.

OP wrapping your grill to make it look like a 507 finish is your easiest way to do it and cheapest
.
Now if you really need the OEM grill some 507 owners on this forum can give you the exact part number so you can order one. GL

I ordered the blacked-out OEM 507 grille and DRL surrounds (trim) earlier this week. Will post part numbers when they arrive from Germany in a few weeks.
Currently I have the grille wrapped and the DRL surrounds in PlastiDip, and I wasn't 100% happy with how either turned out.

I believe they are a gloss or a black-chrome, but I won't know until they get here. Either way it'll be better than wrap/plasti.
600 for the grille and 120ea on the DRL surrounds

I don't have the P/N on me, but I ordered it from http://www.genuinemercedesparts.com/
and it came out to be about 510 shipped for the bottom piece, and 150 for the top piece. I didn't realize that there are TWO separate P/N's as there are TWO parts involved. (silly me), so don't make the same mistake I made, having to order twice.
when I get back into the office on Monday I will see if I can find the P/N on one of my million postits.
EDIT: and yes, this grill is gloss black on the outside.

Ok, here we go. The 507 grille and DRL surrounds arrived today and they are AWESOME. The black parts are molded from black plastic - no paint etc. They are a perfect polished gloss black. I can't wait to put these on and forget about it.
And for anyone doing searches later on the DRL trim / surround removal, I took a couple of close-up pics of the attachment tabs. It looks like it can be pulled off - straight out - but it's going to take quite a bit of force due to the male/female tabs and tight access. I looked at the inside of the bumper while I had it off the other night, and it's probably a better idea to reach in and release the 4 top tabs holding the DRL surround trim to the actual LED light.
Here are the part numbers for reference:
507 Grille (2pcs): A 204 880 39 83
507 DRL Trim - driver side: A 204 885 37 74
507 DRL Trim - passenger side: A 204 885 38 74
I highly recommend calling Tracy at OE Discount Parts (Skyland Auto), as she's great to work with and now knows where to find these. The code these are under - as well as the alcantara shifter and boot - is the 'P61 Grand Edition'.

I hope I am misunderstanding what some of you are saying. I see some of you are claiming to have purchased the grill from 55tech motors, and you are claiming they are vinyl wrapped. I hope they do not come vinyl wrapped and that you had purchased the chrome ones and wrapped them yourselves.
I bought the one shown below and I am going to be pissed if it comes vinyl wrapped black as opposed to being a glossy black material!
