AMG badged grill. Why some and not others.
AMG badged grill seems to be intermittent. I have a 2014 E63S and my grill is plain. However, I have seen a few around that are marked with AMG on the driver's side wing. Why is that? Is that part of the night package...which mine doesn't have?

Thanks. Kind of lost sight of that even though I bought my E63S last week and have seen others that were likely delivered prior to mine, they were probably built after mine.

I like that a lot. That's crazy that some get it and some don't. Its actually a different grill in general, that area between the 2 blades are open on my car and filled in on the grill with the logo.

Looks nice! Subtle detail. I hope my wagon will have the new grille (build date was may 28th so technically if it's not a random update it should have it)

For what it's worth, I've only noticed it on wagons.
Speaking of which, I can't believe how many Wagons I've seen. I think I've seen more wagons than sedans in the pact two weeks!

I wonder how many they have sold this year - there sure seem to be a lot out there for a "special order only" car.

I really wish wagons would become more mainstream here like the rest of the world. Otherwise, you are slammed with a ultra low price during the trade-in here in the States.

2014 E63S
Spoke with my service advisor today and it appears that the badge is an attachment for the early 2014 grill. Price is $113.00 USD. Not available quite yet. Here is the email I received:
"According to Mercedes the parts we can look up in the parts department are not available to order. In the Paragon/Mercedes parts ordering system it says parts not available when we go to order them. I am having my parts manager look into it but it might take a few days before he hears back from Mercedes…..the parts are only--$113.00……"

That's a decent price ... If you would be willing, and if your parts manager can get this for you I can PayPal you for the part, shipping to Chicago and $25 for your time ... Let me know
Also will it be a snap on item?

Thanks for posting the pricing and part numbers. Seems like a cheap and easy mod.
Keep in mind different dealers have different pricing so when you inquire at your dealer, you may get a different price. (even dealers in the same city get different prices so it may be worthwhile to do a little homework)
