2013 C250 Front Grill

Hi Guys

I have a 2013 C250 sports sedan.
I just had a minor accident today and i see that the front grill is broken.

had a couple of questions related to it -
Does anyone know of a good place online where I can buy a replacement?
eBay seems to hv some listings but the price varies from 150 to 300

Is it something that can be easily replaced?

Also, my car is iridium silver in color and the current grill is of the same color. I was wondering if any other color style would enhance the look of the car?

thanks in advance

for that price range you have lots of options look in the official picture thread and see what you like. some times you can go in the classifieds section and people sell OEM ones if you want to go that route. post a pic of what your looking for and people will chime in

I was literally about to post a new thread asking if anyone knew where I could get an OEM style grille with the black fins. Looks so good on a black car. Thanks a ton!

Just an FYI, a black painted sports grille was an OEM option from Mercedes-Benz. When I was at the dealer doing a factory order of my 2013 C250, I discovered that there were a few options available that were not listed on the MBUSA website at the time, they included the aforementioned black sports grille (which looks great on a lighter colored car, I think it was $300 or so), an advanced sport suspension, and Obsidian Black metallic paint.

Can you show some more front end pics with that grill? I don't really like how my silver grill meshes with my Iridium Silver 100%, make the front end blend together too much. I would have loved a white car cause I like the stormtrooper look.

I bought my C250 used, so I didn't have a say in what color grille I got unfortunately I first noticed the black grille on a loaner I had, and told myself I had to have it. It'd be nice to order a car to my likings someday, but on the other hand I do like buying a car and making it my own little by little.

the black grille is only came out on the facelift 204, but can also be fitted on the old shape. replacing the grille is a simple matter just push the bottom of the grill back and it should unclip. remove the top radiator panel cover(the plastic air intake) [turn the small clip in the middle, there are two clips at the back that should be moved back to the engine, pull it up at the back move it forward to remove it fully] pull the grille up out of the two rond hocks and unclip the "T" peace (radiator grille support bracket to be technical) and done. refit all part in revers order.
