C63 Grill INSTALLED from EBAY on White c350 with pano and Dark tint... See Pics!

Easy install, installed in 15 minutes, very happy with workmanship, good value. Has nice glossy clear coated black paint inbetween fins... Looks OEM

Makes the car look more aggressive... also, more "manly" according to the GF

Grill came with Authentic OEM Mercedes star in its own box that snapped into the c63 style grill

Check out pics, very satisfied:

oh sweet.... ya its awesome when someobody post something in the exact same color and model car as yours so u can see more what it looks like before you take the plunge, i love when that happens for stuff im lookin to get too...

If your going to paint it all black, you might as well just paint the stock grill all black except the emblem and save yourself money... because it will look nearly the same since you are painting the chrome surround that goes around the circumference of the grill, which is one of the main additions when you switch to c63...

I personally like the look of the chrome, looks very clean, oem and aggressive and makes the c350 look way more like the c63 that is in the last picture in my post... that it the look i am eventually going for, and will probably do the headlights tinted next

Looks great!
I'm still wondering if I should change my black painted grille to this one.
Both looks good to me

i was going to paint it originally, but then i saw this one and figured i save myself the hassle and possibility of doing a crappy job...

the paint on this grill is really smooth and glossy and did not have any visible imperfections and looks like oem clear coat black on the body, so it probably is better than i could have done...

by the look of your sig it still looks unpainted
why don't you give it a shot?

there are maybe a total of 5 W204 around my area,
out of 5 there are 3 with the sports package, and one in Palladium silver

they are all stock.
I'd rather stand out just a tad

WOW!!! That looks good. I think the entire nose was different at first. That is the impact it makes.

How much are these?

I feel like this grill appears bigger because the C63 is supposed to be wider and more agressive looking I don't know how I feel about how this looks on the regular sport packages. Way to pioneer tho.

I think for Iridium silver like ours, the stock grill is better.

i agree. for iridium it does look better stock, but for darker colors and white, the aftermarket grill looks great. maybe its because the fins on the oem grill matches our car color.

this looks better than the stock grille IMO. classy yet aggressive.

I have a black C350 loaner parked next to mine on the drive way right now. the silver grille looks in all honesty. I'll take a picture later of the two side by side.

I have the c63 wheels vs rb's optionals
