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.

The side markers should be found on ebay. Tow hook cover, good question...

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?

Which sl65 bumper did you buy, pre facelift or facelift, pictures will help.

If you need to find a useful VIN, look on EBAY or autotrader, etc for an SL65 with the same bumper and note the VIN ... this should be enough info for your dealer parts counter. Ideally, you would want to find a car with the same color bumper so that the VIN will lead your parts guy to a part with the correct color suffix.

hope that helps,
Chris

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!
