I put the C63 on my lift today to look at what could be done to fabricate a front license plate holder. I have a few ideas of what might work but I can't figure out how to get the front grille off. It looks like there is a simple release somewhere and it would just pop out but I can't find what is securing the bottom half of the grille.

Has anyone pulled off the grille or have close up pics with the grille removed?

Thanks,

You might want to ask MNL ICE.

He has taken out the front grille to paint it.

Thanks! That was exactly what I was looking for. All I really need to do is remove the radiator cover to gain access behind the grille. It looked pretty easy to take off but I didn't want to snap off or break any of the hidden tabs.

Are the w204 c-class and c63 grills the same? I'm looking for a replacement one to paint and replace

Ive checked both the C63 and C300 350 parts manual
and they both came to the same page, so I assume they are the same.

the only difference is that the C63 grille has an additional chrome strip on the hood.
