X3 and 2012 C coming soon
I am gonna wait to find out if they are of good quality. I'd be in for the C63 style if they are.
It would be nice if they could make the factory sport grille in black also. That way folks would not have to paint them and then worry about the paint getting damaged.

the lux grille on the luxury models have a full frame grille (the grille is up to the hood) therefore the entire grille is attached onto the bumper rather than the top frame attached to the hood and the other half on the bumper like on a C63

maybe it's just me, but I kinda like the grille style as is for our sport model. I think it's got enough chrome in front as is without the extra strip up top and the surrounding. And like the larger slabs. I can see a change if those slabs weren't painted black yet. But everyone has their own sense of style so it's all good

some more photos of the C63 style one piece grille
Here are some photos of the C63 inspired one piece honey combed grille
for those who need that extra motivation prior to buying one.
at the price of what madracer is selling for, its a lot cheaper then buying from the auction site selling for $270+35~40 shipping!![naughty](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/naughty.gif)
and probably cheaper than to have the OEM grille painted by a pro.
As for quality wise... let me put it this way; a C-Class in Asia goes for almost 2x the price of what we are paying for. I really doubt any of the owners would buy a cheap piece for their ride. but just in case...
madracer how is the overall quality of the grille in comparison to the stock OEM sports grille?

The quality is VERY close to OEM grille, the only problem is that the top of grille is not 100% aligned to the hood. But as you can see in the picture the gap is really small so it should be fine. One thing to bear in mind is that to install the grille properly before you put down your hood. Make sure all connection joints and screws are tight.
The delivery takes about 4~5 days to US or Europe.
The paint is gloss black.
