Mercedes Slk - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Slk R170, MK 1 - Years 1997-2004
Part: Grille
Operation: How to replace the radiator grille

The grille of your car has not only a decorative function but also and above all a protective function. Its task is to protect against objects that could damage the functionality of the radiator. One of the additional protection elements in large-displacement machines is the arch, which has the function of taking the force of the impact on itself, avoiding damage to the radiator. However, there are cases where the resistance of the arc cannot do anything against the force of the impact, and this means that the grille needs to be replaced. The most important thing to keep in mind when buying a particular grill is its resistance, perhaps even trying to find a compromise to have an aesthetically pleasing one, thus matching design and functionality.
