The black grill fins will look much better than the silver fins on a black car. I thought MB should do that right from the factory.

Hopefully this helps. This is from my W204 (new C-Class) that I picked up 2 weekends back.

i took a close look at his grill in the pic, i think that is the one from the amg c63 version, the mesh behind the grill gives it away, but it doesnt have the chrome trim on the hood.

Wrong!!

This car is on the road for about 6 months now and i've seen it a few time's since than. It's the original grill painted black.

Here's a closer look at it.

Can someone link me with more pics of this car? I've searched on google and it looks different.

I requested to have it painted glossy and I'm sure they clear it. It costs me about $200. A moderate quality painting would cost about $100 though.

Here's a closer look at it.

I don't see what part you painted. It doesn't look painted black to me. Is this a regular grill?
