I have a few OEM Sport 204 Emblem new (and Luxury), It's the one on the on the lower of this pic. For sport i can do $20. I know that the W204 Hood stays the same, except for the mounting design inside that sustains the Radiator Grille. The sport I already put on my car

Tony, how did you fit the W204 Sport Grille to the W202? Any serious modifications or just bolt-in? Thanks man!

Tony, Are you saying that the OEM hood emblem for the 204 also fits the 202? What is the difference between sport and luxury emblems ?

I think he was referring to the grille when he mentioned Sport and Luxury that is why he posted the pictures above.

I am not sure if I understand correctly. Tony, are you selling the Sport Grilles for $20.- ? If you are, I'd buy it from you. I'll meet you at Culver City.

Sometimes i get busy when I'm at work and type (from my phone) and screw up what im trying to say. I was referring to the Flat Hood Badge Emblem (W204 Sport and Luxury Full Chrome Standing Star W221 Type) That i have if he needed that since it fits the W202 Fine. and no I did not fit the W204 Sport grille on my W202 C230, but since I haven't tried, though I am sure anything is possible right?
