Nice wagon!

I read on another thread you have to remove the front bumper to remove the grille.

2018 E63S
Had mine wrapped in stain black about six months ago including the star. Still looks great. Star is harder to wrap and will eventually peel. All good thus far. Installed with all parts on car.

I replaced my front 2012 grill with an aftermarket version in about 20 minutes. Pretty easy!

Yup, earlier models were a snap. The face-lifted W212s are another matter.
