Chrysler 300C
Front Grill, Fogs

Hi All,

Newbie here, looking to purchase my first Mercedes!

I'm looking at a 2013 C300 (first stop will be to eurocharged for an un-detune lol), the car I'm looking at has a unique front facia and grill that I can't seem to find reference to anywhere.

Here it is, dual round fog? lights, no logo in the grill. Anyone know if this was some odd ball option, or if it's aftermarket?



Any insight would be appreciated!

Jay

The grille just looks like the standard luxury version.I have never seen dual round DRL lights on a 2012+ C300.

Looks like the 2010-2011 luxury E Class DRL?

After more research it seems like this could be a Carlsson mod? I'm new to MB's myself so I am just posting what I find.

I noticed after I ran the vin that it has option codes

257 ROUND LED DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS
(I assume these are the round lights, maybe ones fog)

and

955 EQUIPMENT PACKAGE ELEGANCE
Which is probably the different grill, hood ornament, and chome moulding on the bumpers.

Must be a kinda rare option as I've yet to see a pic with those style lights (with the line through them).

It also appears to have a different lower facia, most curve down, this one curves up.
