CLK Front Grill

I have to replace the front grill for my 2004 CLK320. The dealer offered me 2 choices: 2004 with 3 horizontal slots and 2006 with 2 horizontal slots.

Seems to me that the newer version looks cleaner and less busy. What do you think?

I have both......the 2 slat looks obviously newer.........and I like the depth it adds to the front end..........

The original '04 is nice....but I will probably mod it to remove the chrome and paint it the same colour as the car.............

I will post pics of both

Go for the 2 slots. Newer = Better IMO...
Then keep an eye out for the new tail lights too, then Voila! The latest and the greatest!

Well I answered my own question....I called my dealership and they said they could get me the 2 slot grill for $288.
Sounds pretty high......but I think I might pull the trigger.
It seems like a nice exterior mod thats worth the price.
What do you guys think?

they didn't give me a part number. All I had to tell them was it is the 2006 CLK500 grill with two chrome slats. The parts guy knew what I was talking about.
Sorry.

I got this grill from my dealership....through their parts department. I'm sure they can order the tail lights as well.

I don't have CLK, but I've always wondered why people haven't tried to put the grill from the C55 onto their CLK's...

People put the CLK grill on their C55 so I figure that the reverse should fit.
