Where to buy CLK add-ons? / Black grill
Not sure if the rules prevent this type of post, if so, I apologize and understand if this gets deleted.
Usually I look on ebay and search "w208" to find different things for my car. Thanks to this site I've been introduced to formymercedes and performanceproducts also. But it still seems like i'm missing out, there seems to be a whole lot more custom sites for other brands of cars.
Does anyone mind sharing a few of the sites that they frequent for custom parts,oem parts and other w208 specific items?
also, does anyone know where to get a plain black grill from, or is it a do-it-yourself job? i've seen a few on this site but ebay only shows it with a huge star in the middle

I was told once that the way to get it to come out best would be to beadblast the original grill and then paint it with some flexagent in the paint. I don't have that kind of stuff available to me, so I think that's why most just have someone do it.
