Thinking about a new grill for my C Class

Just wanted to get some opinions, I’m thinking about switching out the grill on my car.

I’ve got the sport grill which is this:

My options are single fin with chrome surround

Dual fin from the C Class Coupe I actually really like this one but it’s too similar to my 3 fin that’s already on my car. Also my bottom diffuser has black vinyl just like this one:

Single fin, blacked out surround:

Or SL Style grill which goes from narrow to wide towards the star:

Or should I stay stock?

I want to say single bar (standard or blacked), but I can’t fully support a Mercedes logo that would be at home on Flava Flav.

the 2 bar is my second choice.

Lmfao then I’d get all the joints.

I’d rather go on a 1 way trip to Mars than drive this classless abomination.

Lol the 2 fin and single fin stars I believe might be the exact same size. At first I was like “Hmm I don’t get it” then I realized what you meant lol. The 2 fin and the single fin blacked out are the 2 I’m debating with the most.

2. Definitely 2.

Do you think the single fin is too poser-ish? I like the symmetry of the 2 fin grill because of how it flows with the front especially when you have no front plate (like me! fuck NY front plate laws).

Exactly. And the singles aren’t cohesive enough. They’re just sitting there.Too much black space. The 2 has the chrome trim around the edge which makes it look like it was a factory option. And it’s pretty similar to what all the new AMG’s are actually getting.

Would a logoless grill be too plain? I feel like that would make it a bit too anonymous. although i can’t seem too find many facelifted W204 grills to compare

It’s tough to see in this picture but some people have taken the luxury grill (minus the standing hood star) and put it on their sport C class which doesn’t look bad at all but I don’t know if it’s the look I want:

THIS!!!

You might need to do some additional customizing. But with a little work, it could look BEAU-TEE-FULL like this:

The double fin in my picture doesn’t have the chrome surround but there are ones that do on ebay I don’t know if I’d get it with the chrome surround as the one up there without it looks pretty good.

I’d say this one.

Lmao I just put it as an option, it’s my least favorite.

Oh man I was looking at the single one with the chrome trim like the double one. For some reason the way the light is hitting it I assumed it was a double one with the two blades being very close together. Massive brain fart. Either do single with chrome or double, which also looks excellent.
