It looks like the same one I posted last week (and that everyone was in on the group buy from Taiwan). Much better price though (glad I waited).

Wait! Before you guys buy one of these look closely at the original C63 grill.

It is a 2 pice grill; the upper part appears to be attached to the hood. The grill on ebay is one piece... how will that look with your hood open? Will it seal right?

Looks the same as the one from the Group buy from Madracer.

No problems with your hood open, i bought my C63 look grill from the Group buy on this forum (From Madracer) The OEM C63 grill is 2 piece, because it's a different hood than the normal W204

And the OEM C63 grill doesn't fit right it leaves a big gap.

so... is this from the same manufacturer from the group buy?

phranksmbz

yes

Very excited to install...

Great mod I think now after seeing a lot more pics of everybodys c 63 grills installed...

i thought you weren't getting one because "it needs the hood and c63 from bumper" for this grille to look right.

looks like the same grille. seller must've been watching what we post up here...

like my post said above, i had to see a bunch of pics first before i fell in love with it... the only time i didnt like it was the first time i saw it on a beige w204...

i like it on the palladium and white a lot, and think it looks superior to stock big time..

i admit though that at first i was skeptical...

thanks for posting pics yall to convince me!

Just to let you know ....

I already bought this grille from that ebayer a couple days ago.
Its on its way.

methodz

dammit, i just ordered this right now too. i think it was the last one! i hate myself for buying all these little things that add up. i told myself i wasn't going to mod when i bought this car, i don't know whats the matter with me.

phranksmbz

lol ... its in your blood. I feel you bro, but its all about what makes you feel better

rb23lb

me too! when i bought this car, I said, "NO WAY" am I going to mod this thing, because it looked sooo good in stock form (which Is why I was attracted to it in the first place) and I didnt even want to think about screwing it up... especially the grill, which is the main stock feature that I thought I would never mod!

rb23lb

I bought one, should be here and installed by weeks end...

Do you know if these people use authentic stars on the grill?

or do they make their own?\\

I assume they buy the stars in bulk from a dealer and then insert them into their fabricated grilles?

FrankW

unlike you the stock grille is the first thing I wanted to change on this car. the second was the small 17" generic wheel they slap the AMG logo on.

btw, they are authentic stars with the ML part number.
