Will the Panamerican grill on the 2018 fit my 2017 version? I have been unable to find a definitive answer from the dealers and MB customer service desk is unable to comment. If you know the answer can you advise how you came to this information. Thanks!

Yes, it will swap over. Your fenders,headlamps and hood are the same. You will have to get a new bumper, grilles, emblems and all the trim and keepers, it will then be able to be snapped into place. For what it's worth unless you're keeping the car for a very long time, it's a rather costly and wasteful venture. The car itself has dropped 35% in 1 1/2 years and will continue to do so. I just bought a 3,500 mile Edition 1, (which is basically a new car) for over 60% of its original price and they were getting a 20% premium for the Edition 1's. I'd hold off until you decide to upgrade the entire car.
