What would be the difference between that and your prototype???

C63 AMG Arctic w/ Stage 1 Tune, DoubleXX pipe, MCD-631X coming soon
Making the bar a tad thinner, and more straight rather than up swept.

IMHO this version is much, much better.

Yes, but sadly, based on what I'm seeing here (only 2 deposits paid), and the Jan 4th deadline right around the corner, it will take literally a MIRACLE to bring this to market.

Yes, it does not look good...I've run this by other car enthusiast friends (Porsche, Audi S and BMW M) and they cannot believe what a great deal this GB would be for a quality, custom item...a pity our group evidently doesn't think the same.

Which pic are you refering to....the C63 Wagon???

The grill that Brian is creating is a completely custom piece so i don't think there are any actual pics on a car as of yet



Calling me a dumbass? Why dont take a trip to Socal and we can meet up at my boxing gym. Not being a tough guy. I would just love to give you some permanent brain damage. We can both sign waivers and go with full head gear and gloves.


The idea of a single bar grill was first brought up when somebody posted a pic of a c63 possibly in another country that had a SL style single bar grill on it. I would guess that Brian got the idea to make this grill from the pic of that car.

LOL....awwww....so sensitive

The idea of a single bar grill for a C63 came from me buying a grill for a W204 and modifying it and putting it on my car and then posting pics of my car with the grill back in the summer time

Although this may sound a little odd, it makes sense to me. If the total run is 50+50 as I remember being mentioned, I'll take one. If it were to be a limited, not to be repeated run of say 25 total, I'll take two.

Yes, we actually ordered a SL65 BS grill to look at it, and see what we can do here. As far as our commitment, yes we have to take a total of 100pcs, 50pcs on the initial shipment, with another 50pcs shipping approx. 30 days after the first, so we have to sell these FAST!!

Sorry to hear this brian but I greatly appreciate the kind actions. All I can say is that the customer service you gave was truly exceptional throughought the entire ordeal. With regards to getting all the maufacturers in and organizing a great group buy, you held up your end of the bargain. On a side not, all of you guys that signed up but didn't pay, please don't flood any other group buys with empty promises and ruin it for those who were interested.
