NEED: SL65 Front Side Markers and Tow Hook Cover
Hello all! Curious if anyone had 05-09 Front Side Markers or a Front Tow Hook Cover lying around or knew a good spot to find them. I put an SL65 bumper on my 2008 SL55 and these are the remaining parts I need.
Unfortunately, my local Mercedes dealer was not very helpful; as I do not have the VIN for the bumper I purchased.
I'll also have to figure out the grille as the 55 grille doesn't quite line up... but first things first.

Thanks! Grabbed the sidemarkers.
Now for the tow hook cover... and grille.
So when attached with the top tabs, the '08 SL55 Grille won't stretch all the way out to meet the bumper... should I try an 03-06 grille?

Thanks Chris! Great idea!
I think I've tracked them all down via ebay... We'll have to see when they get here. Thanks everyone!
It's getting wrapped as we speak - can't wait to get it back!
