A new front grille on GLS450 facelift

Honestly, the latest GLS450's stock grille feels like a throwback to us – almost gives off 2013 G-Class vibes. Not necessarily a bad thing, but maybe a bit too retro for some?

We just swapped it with this EURSPEC aftermarket grille – more aggression. What do you all think ?

(And yes, it's a direct fit – no cutting or coding required &#128521"

there is a dummy cover on the camera hole for the version without 360 system. so just remove the cover and polish the edge.
