Hi all,
Anyone know if the Sedan (w213) and Coupe (c238) grilles are interchangeable?
They look like they are upon examination in person, but not sure.
Thanks!

Well, the only identical external parts between the W213 and the C238 are the headlights and the door handles. Every other body panel is different. That being said, some body panels may be interchangeable. If Vic says the grille+bumper is interchangeable, I would believe him. In your pictures, you can see that even though they look similar the AMG-line bumper shape at the lower corners is different between sedan and coupe, but all you care is that the attaching points are in the same place.

Does having intelligent driver's assist matter or not when changing the grill? I am wondering if the grill is different when you have that driver assist package. I would assume there are wirings attached to the emblem.
Yes, if you have the driver assist functions, your Mercedes star in the center is solid and just a painted silver emblem. If you dont have it, you get a physical mercedes star.

The star assembly is just swapped over, the grill is still the same regardless of driver assist option.
However you need to take note if your vehicle is equipped with 360 camera as the grill differs if equipped with camera.

I am actually thinking of swapping the E53 Coupe grill to a E sedan if that fits. I guess no one knows until that car becomes available.

It makes no difference. The same grille is use in the W213, S213, C238 and A238 ans they are all interchangeable. Mine is a S213 and i have a "Diamond Grille" from an A238 (it even has an A238 part number.

does the E63 grille fit the E53 then i assume? i noticed the E63 has the mercedes logo on the bumper whereas mine has it on the hood due to the elongated front end and different bumper/hood it has
pre-facelift E should be interchangeable across the pre-facelift E series (W/S213, A238, C238 etc)
Post-Facelift E should be interchangeable across the post-facelift E series.
Pre-facelift WILL NOT work on post-facelift and post-facelift WILL NOT work on pre-facelift.
