2008 C300 Sport 6M
The last option isn't bad though my favorite is blacked out slats on a OEM sport grill.
Popp yours looks great too though I think it only works if you black out other parts of the car as you did.

^I agree, while to me the C63 style grill looks decent on the C300 sport, without the crazy C63 hood and bumpers it almost looks a little bit overbearing to the front of the regular sport model.
If you want a black grill, I think your best bet is to spray the OEM grill slats black. I think the OEM star grill looks best because that grill was styled with the car and the bumper, anything else is as good as an aftermarket mod.
However, a completely blacked out C63 grill like the one on the red car looks awesome to me!

Here's another choice on the same Palladium color:

All first surfaces, including the star, painted Palladium...barrel behind star and mesh are still black.

I think the second option looks better than the others. The third grille is very nice but it looks best with the C63 bumpers and hood. I think that the second option is the best for a regular W204.

Out of the three you put up, I like the 3rd option. The silver on the stock grille just doesn't show off the star as well as the C63-style grille. If the silver slats were painted black, my opinion might change, because I love the stock grille painted that way.
