the grill was 150 , jakuo is the seller on ebay. I wanted less slants, not sure if i will try to make one or make this one a star-less grill.
I am going to do a couple more things shortly so i am waiting for that to change the sig.

the star is actual MB part, the rest is good quality, it does come in silver as well. Its not a big difference but i think it is a little sportier, closer to the clk's grill.

i had silver 02 c230 auto..
i traded it a while back for a black 03 320 AUTO..
i had a great deal (my dad knows a dealer blablabla) and since i wasnt planning on really changing my car anytime soon, i went for it...
(silver -> black, -30k miles, both coupe, auto & panoRoof)
so my car is now c320 auto... only 1 mod : black amg reps 18" with ze912 tires...
ill start my thread next month, since ill get at the same time : bixenons, tinted 05 tails, and blaked out grill, subs&s (already got a 2din HU for christmas) and all minor upgrades of course (sidemarkers, blinkers, pedals..)
btw trust me the difference between c230k and c320 is HUGE !
