The new 2006 SL has chrome strips on the grill, but the fit is not as nice as the older grill so I bought some chrome slats, the grill was grey, so rather than too many colours I re sprayed it black like the AMG cars and fitted the slats, I like it. The new SL grill with distronic cost £345 these cost me £80

Malcom,
Apologies for changing the subject, but nice chrome number plate surround.
Are they available for my 1999 SL, and is there a rear surround available too?

Thanks Malcolm, also found a nice gearstick with Chestnut wood, which I find hard to source. Now all I need is the leather/chestnut steering wheel!
Glad you like the new interior to mt SL by the way, I love it!
Thanx.

but are those plates legal for the MOT after the recent change in rules ????????????



"Dual pupose plates can be fitted to any age of vehicle, but are only permitted to display an acceptable international symbol or flag.

Other emblems are not allowed"
