S65 Chrome Lower Grills

Anyone know where I can find a set of the chrome lower grill and flicks of a S65 (circled in red in the photo)? I love the look and really want it for my 16 S63. I've tried ebay and all I've found are just pieces, either just the center, a single flick, etc. Not a full set. Would it just be easier to get a S65 VIN and buy the parts from the dealership? TIA!!

I got mine from MB. Expect to part with what seems like a shocking amount of $$$ for them.

Used parts will be beat up with broken parts where they attach. Is pretty flimsy chromed plastic that looks good installed.

You can also contact Mercteil, whose prices will be cheaper than your dealership, but you're still looking at a couple thousand ... parts even chromed plastic from a S65 will have the S65 tax

A better move would be to find a good body shop and have them remove the grilles and paint them. Will probably be a lot cheaper...

Removing them from a car is a fool’s errand. Many of the plastic tabs used to mount the grilles will break at the slightest provocation. The broken tabs will make reassembly that much more of a PITA as you get to go fishing for them.

S65 tax is real for these and will $ting.

Center bottom grille is the grille plastic and the horizontal piece of chrome. MB is making a fortune on this ish.
