Some pictures of the new grille...
Installed the AMG style grille and plasti-dipped the bottom lip. Wasn't hard at all. Here's a little tip too...if you wrap the little male ends on the bumper with masking tape before you slide the grille into place, it makes it more rigid. Sits in there very secure now.
My backyard is Banff, so first a shot of the scenery today
Now a before pic:
and the after:

C250 Coupe
Hmm...i cant decide if i like it or not. I too have the car in black and have been contemplating if i should paint the stock wheels. I've done a search but cant find a black/ black with the original wheels.
As far as those wheels, the style might be whats throwing off the look as it doesnt fit the car too well. Not trying to be a jerk, honest opinion...

Contraire mon frere. The wheels look amazing on this car. Pics don't do justice. I've gotten three tickets in last month since putting them on. I choose these wheels to decrease attention to the car but its had the exact opposite response.

mud flaps
Arctic white c350 coupe
35% tint
SLS grill
Mudflaps (painted and installed by TNS auto)
Bottom part of front bumper was painted matte black by the shop I go to in Brooklyn, NY (TNS Auto). I didn't want to plastidip and didnt have the patience to see if someone on the boards wrapped it in vinyl
First two pictures are before and after pics of the front bumper that I took.
Last two pictures were taken by TNS after the job was complete
Things I regret:
Not getting the lighting package, 18" wheels, and back-up camera.
Considering wheels, suspension, and quad exhausts...

I went with Iridium which is like the most vanilla color you can get. My ex gf talked me out of getting the Mars red because she said it would attract too much attention, but I think its a beautiful color.

Thanks! These are Front 19 x 8.5 et45 245/40/19 Federal SS and Rear 19 x 9.5 et50 275/35/19. Widest tire size you can put without rubbing. Im happy i went w 19". I think 20"s would have looked too big. There up for sale if anybody wants them. To much drama from NYPD. They must be on the look out for black Mercedes w/ black Wheels. 4 stops in 2 months since putting them on.
