Will this grill fit in my 2012 E63?

https://www.ebay.com/itm/MERCEDES-BE...AMercedes-Benz


The ad says it fits my 2012 E63. Most folks on here who try to change their grill end up changing a lot of other body parts. Can I just swap out to this grill without doing anything else?

Thanks.

Make sure it will work with Distronic Cruise if you have it.

I went ahead and ordered it. Here's a quicky Photoshop of what I hope it will look like, before and after. I'll probably get rid of the hood ornament in favor of the flat AMG emblem.

Not a Photoshop. The new grill went in easily enough and appears to fit nice and snug. I'll still save the OEM grill in case I decide to switch back.

Now you gotta remove the hood star.

Yep, it looks redundant. I'm ordering an AMG flat hood emblem.

And the final product with new grill and AMG flat hood emblem. Looks pretty good for a 2012.

Oh, man! I never even noticed them until you said something... now they jump right out at me.

So switch them to white/crystal?

Clear side markers. I had em on my 2010 E550.
A few different models available, some led some halogen.
I prefer the halogen.
