Where to find Brabus style grill?

Dunno how many of you have seen this, seems to be a rare find. They look AWESOME to me. Anybody know where to find one? Not necessarily CF, just this style grill:

After I saw Hersh's new pics, I too wondered where I could get a grill like this, whether it be CF or not, that grill looks like dope! The guy says he bought it from Felix? Company or a dude named Felix? Hope others can chime in, I am interested.

Ya the one person that I can remember having this was Felix at Euro Passion but his website is down ( www.europassion.com ) and he also has a bad reputation from what I hear around the board. That's just what I've heard but I can not confirm why.

figured it out. they start w/ this grill, but don't use the mercedes emblem insert. so either they shave the star and then mold the rest across, or the other company starts with 4 full slats and cuts away for the star....if they start w/ 4 full slats, i might can buy one without the star and then just paint it or cover it w/ cf

Honestly thats what I was planning to do. By this grill off ebay and cut out the star then fiberglass across then have it overlaid in cf. I really want this grill bad!!! Please pm me if anyone finds out where to buy this or how to get made....From what I have found out from CEC is that brabus never made this grill for the w208.

It's a Brabus style grill. They (Europassions) basically copied the Brabus grill for the 209, and made it for 208.

As stated above, I got the grill from Felix aka Dronellis. He owns Europassion which used to be a site sponsor. I'm not sure how to contact him anymore. But if you find him, be careful. That a**hole never shipped my cf lip add-on for my brabus font lip to me. Last heard he ran away from Indonesia to Canada and that's where he's based now. He has cheated a lot of people on all sorts of forums.

Oh man! That sucks! When I sold the grill to him, it was in mint condition. Hope you get it sorted out. Think it looks much better on your silver car than on my black car. LOL!
