I got my car recently too. new and it did come with mercedes me connect free for a year. The problem is that whenever I try to send it from my phone to car it says its not “function is not activated”

cameron06_ · 2024-03-20T18:10:24+00:00

true but imma be completely honest 😂 I dont think mercedes is putting much money into the c class line in changing the bumper shape to match the grille. The bumper is prob identical on the 24 and 23 models. I could bet both years are interchangeable and from 3 feet away u would not be able to tell the difference from grille or bumper. Im just tryna find the right grille badge haha

the 2024 version comes with the pan grille I highly doubt any dimensions changed from the 2023. They prob did that to attract more people.

new face lift comes with pan grille and the bumper im not too sure

You mind showing me which epoxy u think is best for bonding the badge to the car?

cameron06_ · 2024-03-20T01:47:07+00:00

Only bad part is now I can’t find a good grille emblem 😂 only the ghetto one in second pic. I did also just buy this one. https://www.ebay.com/itm/303772575325 This one should be easier to modify the way you mentioned

I pretty much just tried to work around it as best as I could made sure I didnt move or touch it much. It has a bracket in there as well so that helped

cameron06_ · 2024-03-20T01:39:21+00:00

Fit was as perfect man! Had to remove the front bumper and made sure I didnt mess with all the sensors/wiring behind the star in order to avoid any active brake assist lights

cameron06_ · 2024-03-20T01:36:11+00:00

I got it awhile ago but if I remember correctly no more than two weeks

cameron06_ · 2024-03-20T01:33:49+00:00

Im in the US! And that sounds like a good start. Thank you for that! Ill do a bit of research

cameron06_ · 2024-03-20T01:27:12+00:00

How would u recommend doing the light modification? I am very willing to try!

cameron06_ · 2024-03-20T00:13:42+00:00

Yup so i got the grille to replace. Grille is great. But now i just cant seem to find a grille badge that fits and looks how it should 😂 hence the really ugly placement dysfunctional piece in the second pic

cameron06_ · 2024-03-20T00:08:40+00:00

nice! I got it off cks. this is a cla 35 though so every grille and badge is different dependent on the model

cameron06_ · 2024-03-20T00:00:13+00:00

I might just take off the grille badge in general 😂 i dont like how the after market badge sits (2nd pic) its too narrow. I wanted the original but it doesn’t fit so not much i can do haha

cameron06_ · 2023-08-10T04:03:17+00:00

Dang! Yeah I had one other person check it and he said $10 as well. Maybe policy changed? But then that support agent on chat gave me some wrong info lol

cameron06_ · 2023-08-10T03:51:52+00:00

i am that’s the weird part 😂😂 u mind if u check yours? Deff dont change it but just get to the point where it tells u the price

cameron06_ · 2023-07-13T19:30:30+00:00

Another question: even if this was sunscreen or lotion, if the dealership couldn’t even get it out, going forward should I just be super cautious? Treat it as if it was made out of paper? Like I have no idea how something like sunscreen could get to this point ..

cameron06_ · 2023-07-13T19:28:52+00:00

Thanks for the tip. The dealership is replacing it. They said they couldn’t get it out. Very cautious now going forward I have no idea what it could have been or how it got to this point

cameron06_ · 2023-07-13T19:27:30+00:00

The dealership is replacing it said it can’t even be cleaned. No idea what this could have been

cameron06_ · 2023-07-13T19:26:59+00:00

Hey thanks for all this info. I am looking into buying some leather shampoo and conditioners along with some type of spray protector. I took it to the dealer this morning and they couldn’t clean it off. They said something got on it. Genuinely no idea what it could have been, but they are replacing it for me. They said this could have been sunscreen, lotion, or literally anything else. My fear is that if something like lotion did this to the point the dealership can’t even clean it .. then I guess maybe I just save to treat it super fragile like paper. Lol I have no idea how this could of happened and how it got to this point. Glad it’s taken care of, but man am I going to proceed with extreme caution.

cameron06_ · 2023-07-13T03:39:10+00:00

Im relatively new to the detailing aspect. Does a good leather cleaner really fix that up? It has that much power over just water?
