Front bull bar for your W164

Guys is anybody out here looking for a front bull bar but the dealer price is ridiculous at $800 i would not buy it myself. I have a source that sells OEM style in stainless for $380 black powdercoated is a little cheaper. If anybody is interested let me know my e- mail address is benzofour30@aol.com. I already put it on my 06 ML350 great firment looks just like the dealer one.
That also have side steps and rear bumper guard.

Those Sidesteps and Bullbar really change the looks of the car. Somehow it looks lower and sleeker.

Maybe we're less used to seeing these now in the UK but I think the bull bar looks hideous and makes the otherwise smart front end of the car look cheap.

I agree--don't like it on the W164. Looked pretty good on the W163, but it was more "trucky". In Australia, the Mercedes stock style would be called a "nudge bar", since it's pretty light duty.

Real HD bull bars (or "roo" bars), like ARB makes, are a whole 'nother level of protection:



They don't have a fitment for Mercedes, which is fine, because it wouldn't look right anyway. They look great on more serious off-road vehicles, though.
