I don't think any MBW member has one yet since it's just been introduced early this month (posted on the news and events of the official website). I'm curious about fitment and would like to see some pictures as well.

Huh.....I didn't know the 2003-2005 Clk grille has 4 slat and post-2006 Clk has 3 slat. I'm gonna get the single slat if it fit.

I'm sure they did it now not because of your idea. They did it now pretty much copy it it from the new SL grille.

Ok .......guys !!! The grille is on it way. I'm not sure if it will fit because the seller told me that it for the 2003-2005 Clk 500 but the box labeled it for 2003-2009 clk 500. I asked him to take some pics of the grille mounting point to see if match up to my grille. I would think the clk grille mounting point are all the same. We'll see. Can't wait !!!

Are you being sarcastic? I am sure you knew that already, but I was referring to the 3 slat, No Star grill that we are having a group buy on. Most call it a Brabus Rocket Grill. Check it in the Group Buy forum, I should be going down there today for a test fit.

All years share the same mounting points. Though this is a replica piece so more than likely the fitment might be a little off, but probably nothing you can't handle. I have interchanged a 3 slat grill from a 2006, 2007 and my stock 2003 grill onto my cars same mounting points.

No, I really didn't know until you mentioned that the 2003-2005 Clk grille has 4 slat and the post-2006 has only 3 slat grille.
