Either the picture is hosted on a server with a dial-up connection, or there is some bandwidth rate-limiting going on. The original picture looks grainy, so there is no benefit posting such a big picture anyway. Crop-and-attach or use a real image hosting service, for pete's sake.



And to contribute to the discussion, I don't think the change is worth the money.

Thanks INSPIRE, cant wait to see some photos of that carbon fiber. I have an idea for my grill... because personaly, i think that grille makes it look like a camery or something. Im going to take my grille and get the WHOLE thing painted black. Crome and all, am I the only one that gets this idea?

INSPIRE: To fit the C63 grill did you have to modify anything, or does the grill, and hood trim fit directly into the existing parts?

^There seems to be a space where the "honeycomb" should be hitting the crome and on that logic Im going to answer with it took some modifcation to make the grille fit into the houseing. Could be wrong... usually am

Yeah would like to know if your seriously driving around with two big gaps in your grill? I love the grill, but would never drive around with something that looks like it was built by Sanford and Son.

here's what it looks like on an actual c63






INSPIRE probably had to do little modification to make it fit. but even on the c63 grille, there are the gaps since it is a 2 piece grill!

what people should do is make an aftermarket c63 grille to fit on a w204 non amg !

because that grille makes the front end look way more aggressive!

need work on the top parts. but not much hassle.
the bottom parts is a straight plug and play.
The gap is actually not that obvious once you install it. coz I was squating when I took those pics. but if you see it in person in a normal standing manner, the gap is actually covered by the hood it self. We're talking about the gap on top of the honeycomb mesh right??

Quick question

nope, these parts for the Bullit are not available for purchase. I have to fabricate everything myself.
I also noticed from every new pics Brabus released that some parts actually looks different. one time the grille CF weave meets in the centre other time they go from left to right all the way and another time the opposite direction.

I think it looks great and hey LOOK everyone I can say this without calling anyone names or making petty accusations about crediting a pic or someone being racist.

All the rhetoric is just blah blah blah. Stick to the subject and just be nice children.
