There is only one grill that offers a large star in the center (CL style), and it only fits the Expression aftermarket hood. I have the hood and grill on my car, as you can see here:

Stolen from E-%$#. Search on "CLK Grill"

This does not require a hood swap. They have them available all the time.

I have one (bought from a list member) and really like it.

And by the way...
It takes minutes to install and is as easy as it could possibly be. Unlike the grill on my wife's Expedition. Half day effort that was. Had to take the whole stinkin' front end off.
*sigh*

That is the Shatz grill, we currently have 1 in stock. It is definitely a much easier upgrade, as it does not require a new hood, and costs a fraction of the price.

I like that mod, the front grill with star looks great but I don't feel you should have the hood emblem also; somehow a little too much.

Just my 2 c's.

By the way Ben, just how do you get that shine on your CLK? Every time I see it , it never fails to impress me

Lol! You have no idea how dirty my car was in that picture! I use Meguaires Quick Detail before any of our events. You just spray it on and wipe it off. Easy show quality shine, each and everytime.

Are you looking for a grill kit for the SL and CL? To make your CLK have the grill of a SL or CL? Or for a body kit for a SL or CL?

actually I was wondering if Evosport offered full body kits for the CL and SL. For the CLK I was just looking for the front grill and possibly the front spoiler.
