FS: R230 2007+ 3 Slat Grill w/ Distronic Lense $250 Shipped

Hey Guys,

1st post. I have a 3-Slat R230 grill for sale. I tried to update my 03 4-Slat grill but it doesn't fit very well and I didn't want to cut up too many pieces to make them fit so I'd rather just sell it to someone else that might want to try.

The piece is in awesome condition, however, the 2 end tabs for the screws are broken off, as seen in the pics. The inner holes are ok and it'll hold the grill in place just fine.

This has the distronic lense. #230.880.15.83

Looking for $250 shipped or $230 Local pick up, anywhere near la/oc counties

Thanks,

Han

To all considering purchase: I have same grill installed and it fits perfect and looks much better IMHO, as my car is silver and teh chrome blade tips look great. I paid $500.00 for a new "dealer cost" grill. It bolted right up correctly.

Hey, thanks for the post.

How'd you get it to work? When I screwed on the top bolts on the bottom of the grill was didn't cover all the way up to the front bumper and left a gap.

The 07-08 grills do leave a gap as they are 3-blade in lieu of 4 OEM for 03. Howwver, it takes a little working teh bottm lip of grill back and forth, but it will cover all but (2) samll indents left and right of center. The indents are where the clips are on the original 4-blade grill, but mine where painted and hardly show. The top gill mounting is much strionger than teh original. I still used 15mm thin rubber washers aganst stell mounting and backside of mounting hole.
