Sounds like you got grilled pretty bad there,you might consider what I saw in Anaheim last week. A black panel with a Mercedes grille complete with round emblem front and center. It looked real cool almost had me fooled till I saw the panels and rear lights.

I love the pic of the billet with chrome bowtie on page one. Is this something I can order? Is there a mathing upper and lower...further, while I've found upper and lower grills...I've found nothing billet-ish to go in the fog light housing. It seems like a nobrainer to match up all 3. Any help would be appreciated.

Chrome and white is seldom a good mix.
Get the billet grille powder coated black except maybe a single center bar and stick an emblem on it.

Thanks all - A word to the wise on the $70 billet grilles. They basically suck - the mounting hardware 'adapts' the factory setup and uses these cheesy brackets that were useless and ugly as sin. Get a quality brand.

-No offense to my buddy Jonny but someone shoot me repeatedly if you see a Benz emblem on my car like that one has.

Im going to get the chrome one as planned. gmpartsdirect is going to supposedly take care of it. I will have a white/black mesh 3 bar here soon.
