CL type "star" grill

Where do I get a cl type Star grill? About how much are they and are there any pictures anywhere of what this looks like?


Also, I am thinking of getting the body colored turn signal lenses, is this something i can install myself? do they just snap over the old ones?


Thanks,

I've got one at home! I had it on a CLK for a week. I was going to sell it on eBay some time this week, if you are interested, e-mail me & save some of my work.

Yes... Very easy do it yourself job. They snap/slide off and the new ones go on with the reverse procedure.

I no longer own a CLK. When I bought it, I thought it was pretty cool, but after I put it on, I dont quite like it. The grille was then in my garage cupboard for over a year now. Its just I'm too lazy to do anything about it.

I think the grille costs around $250. I'll settle for $150, how's that?

I am getting the MH-Dezent CL style fiberglass (lighter by 50lbs) hood and grill combination, which we are the exclusive US distributor for. If you like this one better, let me know.

Thanks

That's what I was afraid of (local west coast shop ?). I can't find a grille with the star made in (not an insert) anywhere in NC or on-line.

I'm not particularly thrilled about the Schatz grille, and I'm not replacing my hood for a MH-Dentz. Your grille is the best looking I've seen other than MH-Dentz.

Do you have a phone # for D2

Has anyone seen a one piece non MH-Dentz grille on-line?
