** Front Grill For Sale -- ML55 Style **

Hey guys, wanna shoot this out to the local guys in the NY/NJ area, I am selling my stock ML320 grill, this grill has some modifications to it: the ML500 chrome-grill strips from Jerry, and painted silver to emulate the ML55 grill. There are some imperfections, such as chips, and some overspray, due to my DIY job for painting, also the plastic is somewhat warped near the star, but unnoticable unless closely examined, perfect for someone who just wants to throw it on their ML. Because this grill is in "okay" shape, I am willing to sell it for $60 bucks OBO. I will take pictures of the problem areas today, if you're interested, shoot me a PM. I live in the Morristown, NJ area.

Here are some pictures of the grill...









I wanna get rid of this ASAP.

I also have an OEM Sunroof Wind Deflector for sale, it's in good condition and comes with the mounting hardware, but no box or instructions. Letting it go for $30 bucks. Also local pickup preferred.

Thanks for looking!

Got my quad exhaust done by High Velocity in North Brunswick, ran pipes straight from the resonators, no muffler. I got some 2 1/4" tips, however the sound is too loud, and im not feeling it, so after the meet this weekend, it'll have its muffler put back on.

PM me if you wanna make a deal. Thanks!

Vik, you should've cut the resonator and kept the muffler. that way, legal, with a nice deep rumble.

and can pick up the part.
Is it still available. How much?
Thanks

I'll buy your ML320 Grille if you will accept a lower price

Since the grille has paint defects and is noticeably and visibly warped. What is the lowest you are willing to accept? I can find the same grill with no defects including shipping on ebay for less than what you're asking. A small section of my ML320 grill recently became missing, possibly due to vandalism or hit-and-run and I need a replacement. Thanks!

Unless they do a visual check for the muffler, the muffler itself isn't going to affect the vehicle's emissions. I also don't see how it would set off the CEL. It's the catalysts that clean up the emissions and the oxygen sensors on either side of the catalysts that monitor how the vehicle is running and would set the CEL if it "saw" anything wrong. The muffler has nothing to do with either.

However, as far as sound ordinances and legally having to have a muffler (if that is the law there?).... that could be.
