C350 4matic Obsidian Black
Black on Black Grill
Hi everyone. Im having problem deciding if I should paint my grill black. My car is Obsidian Black. I just want to know ppl who have the black C's painted the grill black has ever regret doing it? I mean does it look better than stock? I haven't seen one in person. Only pics in this forum.. Sometimes I think its wicked but sometimes I think it kind of make the grill look a bit smaller? I donno.. Can anyone who painted the grill black and who owns a black C give me some advice? Thanks alot!

Definitly go for it. Heres mine with CF inserts. Unfortunatly someone decided they wanted the CF more than me and ripped two of the pieces off so the originals are back on till I decide what to do.

Matte black and leave the chrome alone.
This should be enough to get you started:

Anyone have experience with it? I'd just rather keep my original and use this one.

I just got the 2011 c300 and been looking to get the black grill, I saw your post and your grill looks sick, if you don't mind me asking where did you get the CF inserts from? And what type if paint did you use?
Thanks
