Does anyone here have something earlier ?

Brush Guard & 360 Camera?

Yes, I can see the front facing camera 'behind' the brush guard on the G550.

In Germany the G550 has the option of the 360 Camera. I think here it is a standard feature.
'Park-Paket mit 360° Kamera
2.368,10 Euro
Das Park-Paket mit 360°-Kamera und Aktivem Park-Assistenten erleichtert sowohl die Parkplatzsuche als auch das Ein- und Ausparken in Längs- und Querparklücken und ermöglicht durch vier vernetzte Kameras ein realitätsnahes Bild auf dem Display des Multimediasystems.'

So, I cannot see how that works with the 'G550 Brush Guard' in the pictures above?

Good for you! Still no idea about pricing? I assume they will tell you before you get the car!

Can you confirm that you also have 'Code EZ8 Parking Assist PARKTRONIC with 360 Camera' on your specifications/order?
I have that and I don't know how that is supposed to work with that Brush Guard, which indeed obstructs the view of the front facing camera.

Front Brush Guard/Damage Multiplier

2019 front clip has to be the most poorly designed when it comes to its brush guard, which in my opinion/experience is more of a damage multiplier than anything else. They don't hold up to any actual abuse and the new design is absolutely ugly.

You are right! Horrible design. They’ve done this in a couple of hours.
I just hope they take it off at no charge.

The worst part is that the front is so round and tied into the fenders with all the radiators so down low that both the factory or even an aftermarket bumper can't even be made to look right. Sometimes you have to wonder if the designers just slap things together to get through the process and go to lunch.
