Mercedes-Benz SL 107 Early Front Grille Spoiler - 1078880238
DESCRIPTION
Suitable for all W107 SL/C Models.
What is it?
This is the front lower spoiler for W107 280, 350, 450 SL and SLC cars made up to 1976.
This product was specifically designed to fit W107 Models from 1971 – 1976, but will fit all W107 Models nicely.
It is a fibreglass reproduction, exclusively designed and developed by SLSHOP, made to original Mercedes-Benz specifications.
This replaces part number 1078880238, an item that has been unavailable for many years.
Where does it go?
The W107 SL Front Grille Spoiler mounts beneath the front bumper on earlier cars, made up to 1976. It is designed to protect the radiator from debris.
Mercedes-Benz changed the design of the front spoiler as the SL matured in its life, with three distinct variants of the front spoiler as listed below:
1971 to 1976 – not full width but as wide as the radiator plus roughly 10 inches each side. Made of hard plastic.*
1976 to 1986 - full width spoiler which curled up at the edges. Made of rubbery plastic.*
1986 to 1989 - a revised, larger and more extensive front valance. It is made out of steel.
*Both options screw to the metal painted valance using self tapping screws and captive nuts (speed clips)
Why do I need it?
Being on the leading edge of the vehicle, this is a key area for road damage. Over time, your Front Grille Spoiler will deteriorate and crack, making this the perfect replacement for your car. Ours is made from lightweight but strong fibreglass, developed carefully to our own specification. As with all our exclusive products, they have to be good enough to use on our showroom cars before we offer them for sale on our website.
What are my options?
This part has been unavailable direct from Mercedes-Benz for many years, and is exclusive to SLSHOP.
What else do I need to know?
This part replaces original part number 1078880238 and fits all varieties of SL and SLC made up to 1976, including both left hand drive and right hand drive cars.
Specifically made for W107 280SL, 350SL and 450SL and SLC Models but will nicely fit all W107 Models.

Our Top 11 Pre-Winter Storage Tips
Cars do not like sitting unused for great lengths of time. Batteries lose charge, brakes start to seize, electric motors begin to stick, fluids begin to break down… the amount of time it takes for these things to happen can vary but it’s important to understand that your car needs regular use.
It’s been 10 months since we last put pen to paper to report on the current state of the classic Mercedes Market, although those short months have flown by! After a busy summer of car shows, car sales and conversations, it seems once again that the Autumn has snuck up on us out of nowhere.
With thousands of individual components, some of which were bespoke to the model, there will always be a point in your classic car ownership journey where you may find it difficult to diagnose an issue or replace a failed component.
Those of you who have followed our journey from a small hobby business (or side hustle as it is now called) to the 60-strong, internationally renowned team we now are, will know that Bulkheads have been central to the growth of our business.
