2008 C300 Grill Identification???

I recently bought this C300 that was missing the star emblem. The stock replacement emblem I purchased didn't fit, which now has me thinking that this grill is possibly a non-stock replacement. Can anyone identify what this grill is? Manufacturer/style etc. I need to find out what it is in order to get the correct replacement emblem. Thx.

Sorry, I'm a complete newb. What does Prefacelift mean? Is the emblem a standard Mercedes part I can get from a dealership or can you recommend an alternative source if there is one. Thx.

If you like the look, this might be a good opportunity to change the star to the illuminated one. Here's a link to one...http://www.ebay.com/itm/263174712951
