I purchased my GT-Panamericana grille a year ago for my 2014 CLA250 AMG Turbo 4Matic with the sports kit. After seeing your video, I finally decided it was time to install the new grille and I dedicated nearly two days to the project by taking my time. I found it very frustrating getting that diamond grille out without breaking any of the plastic grille clips. You have to be patient or it can test your sanity. I did not install a protective mesh for the radiator because I don't drive as much as I use to and I figured the free flow of air would keep the engine cooler. I ended up with a few extra parts from the diamond grille because the Panamerican Grille does not require the same pre-cut support foam and it installs so much quicker. There's nothing easy about the project but when it's done, you're going to love it. Don't discard your diamond grille as you never know if you'll need it again or if someone may want to purchased it from you.

so good that we have different tastes in this world. otherwise it would be boring. Personally, I thought that the "old" CLA grill is nicer (at least in some color combination with some cars. I have not seen (or searched so much online) the "old" CLA grill in completely black) MB Star in silver and the two lists the middle in silver. But front grille completely black. (meaning that the silver dots were painted black) But great to see what one should and should not do to change the front grille. Thanks for the video. Nice you are happy. Thats the importent thing here!
What a performance. I changed grille on my e class 2019 only took about 20 mins and about 4 screws. I have CLA 35 now but I dont think I will bother after seeing this.
Hi Ryan, your car looks great with new grill! I have a 2019 Gla 45, what model is your cla and most important who is the supplier of grill! Thanks, Jake from South Africa
Great job! I’m doing the same on my CLS.it would have been better if you had install the mesh to protect your radiator, but some like it wide and open. I added a mesh prior to install. Keeps the bugs and minimize debris. It would protect the radiator. The grille gaps are very wide in the panamericana as opposed to the tightness in the Diamond grille.
@@djmariovalens I ordered mine through Amazon. You can cut it easily with a sharp scissors or a simple metal cutter. It’s inexpensive like less than 16-17 bucks. Here is the one I used.

No issues at all, perfect fit for me, arch screws were abit tough to get off but easy one you know what you’re doing. Not caused any performance issues, rattling or anything by like that. You’d never know it’d been changed.
Does anyone get random radar flashes and a noise spontaneously? I replaced mine and it fires maybe once or month or 2-3 times a week. Depends what mood it’s in.
Nah the bumper was fine it looks worse as the video is sped up I was very carefully lifting it up and placing it down softly. The bumper was fine after the install.
Mercedes of course has to be so fucking difficult just to remove a front grill the W204 Mercedes you literally pop the hood and pop the grill out this is just ridiculous

Cannot believe you let the bumper scrape all over the floor like that
When you’re by yourself these things happen 🤷🏼♂️

how did you attach it to the radiator?@@jean-claudemorin7377
I have a CLA 220 CDI, 2013. Does this grill fit my car?
Thats crazy. Looks awesome
Has your bumper not scratched on the floor 😢
any issue with this grille so far? I have a 2014 CLA and would eventually like to grab one of these

On mine zero issues
Does anyone get random radar flashes and a noise spontaneously? I replaced mine and it fires maybe once or month or 2-3 times a week. Depends what mood it’s in.
No mention of where or how many fixings that hold the bumper on
Where can I buy this grill from ?
Did this cause any sensors to be triggered
Guy please can someone help me here I have mercedes CLA 220 can the front grill fit my own and if yes how will be able to get the correct one plz
Is it just me or do some CLA’s sit lower? Is there a way to change this or is it just the wheel size?
I’ve wondered the same thing. i noticed mine looked a little lower than some other ones
Where did you get the grill my man.?
What I don't like about these grilles is that you can completely see through them
There should have been some mesh behind it
Where did you get it?
Mate, did you scrape the bumper having it all over the concrete floor like that?
Nah the bumper was fine it looks worse as the video is sped up I was very carefully lifting it up and placing it down softly. The bumper was fine after the install.
Did this on the Gla, changed the whole car
Do you have the link to the grille?
Where is the grill from?
Combien elle t a coûté?
Is that a Cla 250? I have a Cla 250 2019 and I wanna do it! Will it fit? And what’s a link I can get it 🙏
I have the same car! Did you go through with it??
What are those wheels man?
Those are stock these came on my CLA 250 amg/night package
Sinon merci pour le montage
Why take out diamond grill. Its a cool looking grill.
Do you have the link to the grill??

Have you had any issues with debris hitting the radiator?
So basically you need to send it too the garage 🤣🤣
Where did yoy you found instructions on how to install the grille?
I didn’t I just went along with it…
@@RyanUKplays i mean, it is not easy to do
@@bigkaki000 I wouldn’t say it’s easy but it’s not difficult just some fiddly bolts to get the bumper off but after that it’s very easy
@@RyanUKplays but how did you know which and where and what screws to take out? Like those next to the wheels?
@@RyanUKplays any heads up about what to watch out from?
need the windows tinted
Monteur Renaud dommage c’est marqué derrière 180 d
God I alr know this gon be a pain n da ass when I have to put mine on
Looks difficult 😭
Would be a lot easier with 2 people 😂
Another video that doesn’t show how to remove and refit the badge, great
So you do all this time lapsing and then you cut from the old to the new grill and don't show the actual installation.
Wow
Shell Bp fuel thanks guys
Original still look the best
Mercedes of course has to be so fucking difficult just to remove a front grill the W204 Mercedes you literally pop the hood and pop the grill out this is just ridiculous
and thats why its reliable mate not cheaply put together.
what kind of car porn is this?
your star is crooked
where did you buy it?
