Non OEM Painted Black Grill..
For anyone who has personally seen or ordered this grill.
1.) Is the shiny gloss black a different color than the w204 black C300?
2.) Is the fitment just as good as the stock OEM?
3.) Does it have that OEM classy look when you install it?
4.) How hard is it to install?
I am either ordering the one below online for $140 or getting my painted for $200 by a professional. What do you guys think?

2. Fitment on aftermarket grilles are great- but not perfect.
3. I love the way my aftermarket grille looks
4. 10 minutes max- Very easy.

hmm i would go with getting it painted by yourself not by a pro. First are you a experience painter? did you paint before? if your not then let the pro handle it but if you want to save some money Do It Yourself. If you want to do it the easy just buy a C63 replica grille on Ebay.

I am an experience painter for house painting - not OEM grills lol!
I might see if my friend and me can handle painting my grill. I feel like the hardest part is assembly and disassembly..
