2008: MC Grill
I'd like to make my new MCS look like this:


It looks like this would be do-able. Does anyone know for certain that the grill from a 2008 MC will fit into a 2008 MCS? Does anyone know how much the grill is?

If so, would anyone w/ a 2008 MC be interested in trading grills for the MCS grill?

Regards,

Jeff

 

Yes, it's been done before: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...d.php?t=102774

 

Yeah it's possible but the MC grill would need to have the backing trimmed for more airflow.I was quoted 80 bucks from the dealer.

 

Thanks very much - this is just what I was looking for!

 

I have a 2007 MC and I would definately be willing to trade with you!

 

Just an FYI that the S grill will not work on the MC. If you want black on a MC, you have to get the JCW grill. So the trade might not work in your favor!

 

Well, nevermind. Do you know how much a JCW grill costs?

 

Here you go, this is where I got mine:

Thanks for the help!

 

I've seen posts by people who said they have done it. However, it is not a direct fit and requires modification to the mounting tabs or holes.

 

Yeah I know what you're saying. I was just coming from the point of view of take one out, put one in, without adjusting. I initially tried an S grill but it looked like more trouble than it was worth. Plus I had a JCW right there that snapped in easily.

 

Well - thanks everyone. I was hoping that it would be a pretty straight-forward process. I'll have to think that one over ...
