| W164 Grill for W163 Vehicles
Hey Guys,
No need to do the mod yourself ...... Here is a company doing the mod professionally ... just bolt on .....

OOPS I made a mistake .... that was CHF! (Swiss Francs)
1$US = 1.58 sFR
1 Euro = 1.24 $US
PS: I forgot to chage target currency in the poplist for the above link.
I reckon that the grill should eventually be about 100Euro (124$US) on ebay.de

I'm wondering how they solved the mounting parts .... how professional did they modify the original? ... .or perhaps they made a new look-a-like?.....

What are those holes in the crossbars? Is that where the missing chrome strips attach? It looks unfinished. |

Why not just buy the W164, a far better & good looking vehicle all over, not just the grill... just j/k |

RODENY,
I'm keeping an eye on ebay.de to see how the listings are going (there should be permanent listings soon).....
I'll swoop in when one goes real cheap and give the forum a report on the quality of the fit! ...... The black closeup picture looks like a real clean finish!....
Wonder which color would look best on my truck?...... Any suggestions? .... I 'm not sure if black, or chrome!....
At the moment I have the AMG BULL look!

At the moment the W164 grill is going for almost the website price on ebay.de .... I would wait for at least 10 Cycles of the product post... The seller is trying to milk the potential market by listing one after the other!.....

Like I said ... here is the next one ... but the seller seems to think he can get rid of them for over 200 Euros....
http://cgi.ebay.de/Kuehlergrill-M-Klasse-W163-Facelift-W164-Tuning-...
It's a question of 2-3 runs without any bids before the price will be lowered!.
