Just wanted to let everybody know about a simple upgrade
Hey guys,
Just wanted to let you know that quite possibly the easiest and most effective upgrade I can imagine is installing an aftermarket grille for my 98 C280. It only took a few minutes, and it really helps to dress up the look of the car. Just pull out the eight bolts that hold it in place, then pull out the grille. Pop in the new one and you're done. If anybody is thinking about it, I would surely recommend doing it.

Of course I know many of you are already aware this simple job. I really posted this for the new guys like me. By the way I got the grille from a Mercedes dealer of Ebay for $100 including shipping.

Your Star grille is chromed, isn't it? Or Stainless? Looks like it to me.
I'm not sure what C280's point is. You can get either a Star or non-Star grille, but both are chromed, or "polished."
