Black Front Grille for the C63 AMG W204
Had a Black on Black '11 C63 AMG and had a Black front grille installed, did not see too many info on it
The front grille from the non-AMG cars does not fit, even though some sellers advertise them as they do, THEY DON'T
Installation was very easy, about 10-15 min
If anybody needs to know:
1. Open hood
2. Remove Center Plastic Locking Rivet, it's the twist off one right in the middle of the grill on top
3. This step I decided to just push up the middle plastic cover and unscrew the 2 x 10mm nuts holding the factory grille to the radiator support
4. Firmly push the grille at the bottom to unlock it from the bumper, it's just click in plastic tabs, FIRM push should get it popped out
5. Once pushed out of the bottom pins, slide is up out of the side groves on the bumper.
6. Reinstall new one in backward order (might not have the extra bracket behind the star that screws in to the radiator support.
Here are some pics:

Car looks good!
I found out the hard way recently, seller advertised it fits C63, but the grill itself isn't as 'pointed' as the C63 one.
I assume this fits non-AMG W204, does anyone know if pre-facelift and facelift cars are able to run the same grill?
