2013 G500 Chrome grill guard

Hey guys,,,

would you please help me to find the 2013 chrome grill guard for my G500.

the dealer here at back home they charge me arm and a leg for it "without installation"

also, im looking into buying a AMG side exhaust, will it damage my car "performance wise", will it damage my vehicle?


much appreciated

The 2013 G63 front bumper is significantly different then other designs. As such, the grill guard may not be interchangeable. Also, the design of the tubes surrounding the headlights for all '13's is different than previous years. It may not look correct without the bar of LEDs on the current model.

I think he plans on retrofitting the LEDs onto his old G500.

Also he isn't necessarily asking for the G63 front bumper/ guard. He may be asking for the G550 versions which still use a similar front bumper design to the older ones.

'13 G550 is only chrome on the tubes, not the uprights. G63 is all chrome. OP needs to be more specific on this topic.

Good source for parts, but that one is not compatible with the 2013 headlights. Vlad might be able to source a new one, though.

I'm not sure what the headlight issue is, but I have a W463 bumper and factory brushguard in black for sale. I'm only asking $600, not the $1300+ for a new one.

Note the headlight surround on the 2013 (silver below). The design of the pre-13 grill guard will block the LEDs below the headlight.

Pretty sure I've seen a few new G550's with the same brush guard as a G63 without having to cover up the DRL's.

Here's one:

G63 guard is all chrome (no black uprights). 2013 G550 guard has black uprights. Both have the cutout for the LEDs.

OP doesn't want the G63 bumper which is different from the regular one.

Yeah I meant the bigger sides for not covering up the DRL's, I can see the chrome and powder coated black difference though.
