Is Regular CLK front grill the same as Black Series front grill?

I am looking for a new front grill hopefully it is already painted in black. There are a lot of regular CLK front grills on ebay but I am not sure if they will fit.

I asked one of the sellers that if their grill fits on a Black Series. He said it has not been tested on a Black Series so he is not sure.

They are the same, but the amg grill and the regular grill have different safety catches. I have a gapless 1 fin grill, but I have to pull the grill a little bit forward to slide the amg safety catch behind it. I have the non amg safety catch which I know will accomadate this certain grill but I'm about to switch it out to the carbon morello grill so I haven't bothered to switch it out.

Why not just wrap your stock grille with 3M Dinoc carbon fiber...
This vinyl is as close as you can get to an unfinished CF...

It looks nice. I have to replace my grill because there are bubbles which I can't wrap them over.

Can you sand and fill the "bubbles" ?
