I got in an accident yesterday. I was the 3rd and last vehicle in the accident, and luckily I braked enough to only cause damage to the grill and bumper. Headlights are fine! Well, is there anywhere where I can get an OEM grill that's already painted black? Similar to how most people paint their grills on this forum, black slats and leave the chrome. I heard the one on ebay was not OEM, but I cant find any differences.

Glad to hear that you're fine. I was in a similar accident few months back then. I think there is nothing in the market which is OEM unless you buy the grille and paint them yourself. Try looking at my thread called My C has got a new face. Another idea for you.

Actually, I was looking at your thread as well as C300Kid's thread about the CL-style grill while I was writing that post. C300Kid's car is black like mine, so it was great to see what it would on my car. It's an amazing grill, and I'm really considering it as an alternative if I can't get a black OEM grill.
