Looks good. I have the same grille, but kept my 3 slat stock grille. I can always interchange them in the future. Recently got the color matched sidemarkers from another member. I actually love them. Who knows....maybe someday I'll get the eurostrips. Whats next on the mod list for you?

i am very satisfied with the grill. it looks better than I ever would have imagined. Looks like it came on the car. only problem is I can't figure out how to take off my old hood release and put on the new extended one. anyone know how?

I always had a problem opening my hood once I put the CL style grill on. The hood would initially pop open when I pulled the hood release lever from inside the car (as if should), but when I would pull the extended lever it would not clear the two latches and would not allow me to open my hood,,,so I went back to the stock grill.

2005 Mercedes C230 Sedan
Awesome car!
I'm jeallous of that silver car with the grill! I'm new to the Mercedes world had had some questions if you guys don't mind helping me out.
(1) Where did you get that Grill? I like it because it doesn't look like the cheap knock-off's running around...
(2) I put the factory COMMAND system in my car for my '05 C230 and was wondering if;
(A) I could upgrade the map software to be 3D like the new SL's?
(B) Can I make it voice activated without the phone or is the voice activation even worth it?
Thanks!!!
