Yeah, I saw that one too, but I'm preferential to the one I posted because it has mesh in the middle instead of the solid center behind the star. Considering how I drive, I need all the cooling I can get...

How is the fitment for that one? Is that the one the OP has?

Yeah...me too. That was what I meant earlier by "3-dimensional" star. Does anyone know if the black plastic portion is molded in black or painted?

You know, I'm not sure. His ebay store has both black and white grilles so that'd be a good question to ask.

I'm not sure, but it looks really close. Judging by the pics on ebay it looks like a direct replacement: Just pop out the lower grille and unscrew the upper and it should go right in. The tabs and slots on the bottom look a lot like the OE.

Josh: If they are painted, I'd steer clear away from them because it probably wouldn't take too long before they chip. On my w201 project, I bought an "Avantgarde" style grill and the black portions were painted. Needless to say, the painted portion was pitted in a short while.

Perhaps the painted portion could be clear film coated. While my car was being front clear bra'd I thought about it.

You still need to deal with the mesh and it looks molded in. I sent the seller a message about the black portion. I'll let you guys know once I get an answer.

Guys, be careful when you're buying the grill (both with solid or mesh center)... I have tried it myself. The ebay sellers were told that the grill would fit in a C63 but it does not. I ordered one and confirmed with the seller; even had it professionally installed, but it just wouldn't fit. The C63 hood sits lower then the normal C class, so you couldn't able to close the hood properly once installed. The grill is about thrid of an inch too tall. If you would close the hood normally by slamming it, it would surely crack the grill.
It does look GREAT, especially on a black C63... unfortunately, the ones on ebay would not fit the C63 (I returned it and got full refund). I'm too curious on where did the OP got his grill.

i actually bought it yesterday and then saw that it didnt fit the c63 amg . i contacted the seller and he told me it does not fit it so he fully refunded me the money . i appreciate the honesty from this seller . i guess you have to mod this grille to make it fit .
