Single Fin Grill source for 2008
Hi
I have a 2008 SL550 (black, with AMG sport package) currently with the stock 3 fin grill and thinking about swapping to an single fin grill, and I'm trying to find a good source for a single fin grill.
I know there have been other threads about single fin grills, but most of them are older threads and/or don't discuss 2007 and 2008 sources (maybe I missed them)...
Most of the R230 single fin grills listed online are for 2003 - 2006. However, I did find this one listed on ebay by seller "mbzpartsusa" for 2007 and 2008? Does anyone know this seller or have this grill installed??? Any feedback or pictures:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/28426068553...53.m1438.l2649
On other threads on the forum, I have seen the seller 55tech (jakuo) mentioned with good feedback, but they don't seem to have one for 2008?
Any opinions, feedback, or suggestions would be appreciated.
THANKS

I just checked my records and I can confirm that I also bought one from the EBay source that you linked in your post.
It is mounted in a 2007 SL550 and it fits fine!
