I want to replace my tattered OEM grill with the newer style model. What's the best brand/supplier and where can I get one?


Also, same for AMG lower trim - bumpers, cladding.

if you don't care about expenses, go to the dealership and order the real MB avantgarde grill. it's got the 210 look, perfect fit for 202, OEM quality. very costly. do a search here and u will see the part number and instructions on how to get one. if you want something cheap, just order it from ebay. they are ok. quite sturdy, the only draw back is you have to mod it a bit with a dremel for a perfect fit.
by the way, all these info you could have obtained from using the search function here. we've got a extensive collection of information.

Really can't afford and arm and a leg and I don't want to Dremel........Schatz maybe?

I'm well aware of the search function, the problem is weeding through all the info. I've seen SO much info here about grills that I cannot determine which is the BEST choice.....hence my post

If you did search, most of the grill upgrades point to www.bekkers.com Its either that, or eBay.

don't get me wrong, the ones from ebay are fine. they are sturdy grills and they fit. just not perfect fit because a few places fit too snugly to have the clips go in. it's not like anyone can tell from looking at ur car. but if u r anal about perfection, then u need to dremel.
