W212 Grill and Bulbs
First time poster, long time benz owner..
I just upgraded from an '09 E350 Sport RWD to a '12 E350 Sport AWD.
The ride is excellent, but I must say that I do miss the body styling of my '09..
Anyways, I have already tinted the windows and debaged the trunk. The final mods that I'd like to complete are a new BLACK GRILL and maybe new bulbs for my lights.
Can anyone recommend an aftermarket grill manufacturer/supplier?
Also, I do not want to upgrade to Xenons, so are there any particular bulbs that I can buy to get a bluer color? The lights are very bright and white, so this isn't a huge deal...
Many thanks in advance!

hi, welcome.....
I'm sure you're enjoying the new ride, amybe the body style will grow on you more.....
I'm always staring at my car, LOL......
a good way to check on your questions would be to do a quick search for black grills
and other stuff you're on the hunt for.....
there have been several pretty good threads on these topics.....
we all love pictures too, so throw some up when you get the chance eh?
enjoy!!

The W212 is such a stark contrast from the W211, going in a totally different direction with the more masculine, angular, sharp, aggressive look that it can come across as jarring when you've acclimated to the W211's pure classic elegance and feminine grace (and I'm not using "masculine" as a postive and "feminine" as a negative necessarily, btw).
I love the W212 look, but also love the W211 look.
It's been a while since I've driven a W211 (since I sold my '06 almost 2 years ago). How do you like the W212's ride compared to the W211? How do you feel they compare in comfort and quietness in your fresh state of switching?
