Welcome to the forum Like the grill.
If you can make your way to the Tesco Superstore car park at Sizer Way, Dibden, Southampton S045 5JA by 9am on 20th Aug, most members meet there and travel on to Beaulieu Motor Museum in convoy so we are parked as a group.

I just bought a S205 2 weeks ago.
I'm looking to upgrade the grill to GTstyle , I heard you have to remove the whole bumper but from the pics it looks like just open the top bit and you manage to swap it.

I watched a lot of videos prior to thinking I could remove it myself. 3 star style stews at the top. 2 just between the headlight and the grill. 3 x 8mm underneath and 2 those on the wing and inner arch.
Bottom right corner twist and unplug electrics.
My bumper still didn’t come off so to prevent breaking it I had my two sons hold either side to prevent it scratching the wing. Took the old out and fitted the new.
Took maybe 2.5 hours but then I wanted to be sure it was right and I’ve never done anything like it before.

I really like this model C63AMG. The front grill has made the car look even better

I also like the upgraded grill. Toying with the idea of getting one for my C63.

Where did you source your grill? OEM?

Bentley grilles is the place to go apparently

Hi.
thanks, I purchased it from eBay (not OEM). The guy I got it from has others and it was hz-dynamics.
hope this helps, it takes some getting used to.
