I just installed my C63 aftermarket grill. The fitment isn't 100% but it'll work. Took about 20 minutes to install. What do you all think?

I ordered from eBay and it came from Taiwan and got here in 4 days.

Factory vs New Grill

I like the single bar grille. Hoping to pick up an all black one soon.

Looks good.
Getting a single Black as well

As much as I like the stock grille, the C63 grille just looks menacing.

Looks good. Did you leave the T-Bar (bracket) in, that the top of the original grill was attached to? or did you remove it?

lemonstand

The new grill came with a shorter T-bracket (about 2 inches shorter). So I installed that one. The OEM bracket was too long

It looks good! better than the stock grille and are you planning on doing anything else to your car?

I think I'm about done with mods. My mods since I got it.
OEM c63 wheels
Depo c63 headlights
Backup camera
Sub/amp install
Roof and decklid spoiler
Redid MB emblem on rotors
25% tint
Led side markers (didn't like them. took em off)
And now this C63 grill


I've debated painting the front bumper fascia (black) but not sure i like the look.

nice for your oem c63 rims there 19s right? and I was thinking about the same ones but I was wondering if you had any weird rubbing or wear on the tires

lemonstand

OEM C63 wheels are 18's. No rubbing whatsoever. Offset is 45 front / 54 rear.

Just sharing my own opinions here, don't hate me for this

I think that C63 grill stands out a bit too much without the muscular lines you get from the original C63 hood.

Is the black plastic on the new grill painted or molded-in?

Not sure I'm a fan of the chrome surround of the C63 grille. I went with the black painted sport grille on my C. Works really well on a silver car.

It appears it's molded in but I'm not certain.
