Stellar car my friend! Question, your badges and some of the trim are gloss (and I like). Are they black chrome or glossed over dip?
Thanks for the kind words - the trim bits are a mix. The emblems are actually painted - I won't get into how much of a PITA some are to pull off and reuse. I ended up buying a new set.
The grill emblem and the window trip were just dipped - the places where it looks gloss black is a different wrap rather than the anthracite grey - I liked the pop it gave
Bumping this back up with a question, is there an OEM part number for the clear plastic piece covering the Mercedes emblem in the middle of this grille? On my 2013 it is open to the radiator so just wondering.
Also is there any vendor out there selling a black grille like this one? I know most people seem to wrap or Plastidip but looking for a full replacement if possible.

his grill has that thing because his car has the distronic option.
not sure about black grill, but revozport has a carbon fiber one. Id just plasti dip or paint it.
Ahh, very interesting... that makes sense, thanks for the info. The Distronic option isn't available in Canada so have been wondering on that, my wife's new 2013 B250 has the same covering over the grille emblem so thought it might be an add on.
Thinking about getting my grille wrapped but will look into the Revozport option as well.
I love the colour, but I'm not overly in love with the reduced ride height. Wheels look like they are crammed right up into the arches. What suspension work did you get done?
Looks great, but then again, I'm a bit biased! Been debating on wheels, and now seeing this I think black is the way to go. Keeping the calipers silver though on mine.

PS: Holy 2 year resurrection!
Haha, always funny to see random comments in a old thread. You should go with black though, I think it looks amazing but I could be biased.
