The ebay dealer is pretty good at communicating and assured me it will fit a w204 c300 sport. I have an e-mail from them agreeing to pay return shipping if it does not fit. I figured it was worth the risk. $150.00 + $87.50 in shipping+ probably around 200$ in repair/paint. 437.50$ total for a c63 hood

Is a c63 hood going too far? I already have the diffuser/lip,tips. I think it looks awesome, but I don't care for people to think its a c63. It's just a super nice 2012 c300. I think it's too good of a deal to pass up.

That is a steal. But (from what I've read in these forums) if it's an OEM C63 hood it will not fit.

an OEM c63 hood will not fit. I made sure to confirm with the seller that this is not an oem c63 hood. The seller is either 100% on point or has no idea what I am talking about. I bought the hood so I'm going to find out.

REALLY GOOD DEAL, i wanted to get a c63 BS style hood but i was too scared to get it because if it was 100% perfect fitment; it would drive me nuts. *plus i had bad luck with ebay parts*

PLEASE post pictures once you get it and have it installed. I have been looking for a while and the cheapest one I could find was ~$750.

Thats a really good deal. From what I understand both the fenders and grill and grill are different. Once you change those you need a front bumper too. Good luck with it. Maybe the body shop can figure a way to blend it into the fenders.

Yeah they just updated the listing today after I bought it and made them measure the hood from top to bottom. It was clearly longer then my c300 hood so they cancelled my purchase and relisted the hood with that important part added. They clearly didn't care to check when I e-mailed them asking 3 times if it would fit a c300.

Oh well, Now I have the itch for a c63 black series amg hood. Might just say f'it and buy one for 700$. I'm hoping one of these ebay sellers will accept my offer at 600$.

Also from what I read the valeo C63 AMG hood needs the whole body kit to fit? All the replica c63 hoods are not his way correct?
