if he's new... he might not know what "Stff" stands for. when i first joined this forum i got the same replies and had no idea what it meant.

Stff = search the forum first

the reason why is because we try not to repeat questions whose answers already exist in previous threads.

happy searching

I think you can buy the grill star at the dealer, im not sure. but yeap, search the forums first. because we try to advoid these kind of generic questions so our forum doesnt overflow with these generic everyone ask questions.

such as.

clear headlights
new rims help me pick
k&n filters + HP!?
New to forums need help adding turbo
why is my c230 so slow, need to add horses

etc.

welcome to the forum...
yes, there is a wealth of information burried in many many threads.
Specially for the C-Coupé.

The star on the grill is not sold separately, and the dealer or anyone else will only sell the entire grill as a whole. From the dealer it could become expensive. Many 2004 and older Coupés upgraded to the new 2005 C-Coupé grill, so maybe they may have their old one available for sale a bit cheaper. Also check eBay for the genuine C-Coupé grill.

As for the 2005 C-Coupé clear headlights, check with www.MBenzNL.com and see if they have a set available.

Again all of the above has been stated many times before. You kinda get a freebie this time, but please make sure you thoroughly search, and you will find that there are many more answers strewn throughout the past 5 years of C-Coupé threads.

That was really very kind of you not to flame this guy. BUT:

I have not found one thread yet regarding replacing the perforated leather seat inserts with perforated Alcantara and a breathable mesh underlayment, and adding 1/2" medium density EAR Specialty Composites visco elastic (memory) foam with additional polyurethane foam bolsters. Still looks pretty much stock. I love stealth.

Mebbe I'll start one soon.... (the rear seats are done)

And I did it all by my little ol' lonesome self. Don't try this at home kids.

Film at eleven.
