SL 65 AMG front grill
Anyone have an original 2005-2006 SL 65 AMG silver plastic grill that accommodates Distronic Cruise Control for sale?
You can PM me or send email to biazis2@charter.net
Thanks........
Why do I need one: 3 of 4 bolt holes broken on top of plastic grille - I suspect that when the bumper cover was off a few months ago to replace IC motor at the dealer under warranty, the bolts were over torqued and completely cracked the plastic holes.......difficult to prove now.......to the dealer
New plastic grill $ 1,100 or $ 600 on parts.com....found out there are 4 new ones at MB warehouse in Germany...........love to find a good used one.....

ebay europe
Will try Europe....
There are 4 in the MB warehouse in Germany and none in the USA or Canada.
Had a look at it again today and will fix it with hard plastic/adhesives to create some holes for the bolts to fasten through.......
Being a distronic unit is the issue....I can buy new aftermarket ones for $ 200 all day long....
