CL Grill Or Roof Spoiler?

Hi, Just wondering which of the 2 would look better on my car.

Cl Grill or Roof Spoiler?

- (07 C-class)

p.s. If You can attach a pic of any of the above on a car, that'd be great. Thanks.

umm they both look good, its really depend on your taste. Personally I will go just for the roof spoiler. The CL grill is a bit flashy for my taste.

I think it also depends on the color of your car
CL Grill might look better in some colors than others

I would go with the CL grill if I had to choose...the roof spoiler is a little bit "ricey" and it is a bit over doing it on a benz...just my opinion. If I didn't have to choose I would choose neither. Keeping it stock is gangsta...

lower the car!, thats the best cosmetic mod u can do to a w203. and get a flat hood emblem. i switched my grille to the avantgarde 4 slat carbon look and i loved it, until i rear ended someone and it broke.

Search for the "Official" roof spoiler thread. Should be some good pics in there for you.

As for the grille, it's a matter of preference. Only reason I changed was to go with a theme and cuz I color matched everything except the big star on my MH-Dezent grille.

Other then the roof spoiler and cl grille im looking into rims 18's or 19's.

I cant seem to find one, but the hardest part is not knowing if i should smoke my tail lights tint my windows and get black tints...

or just throw on some nice 18's or 19's and keeping it classy.

My car is white on black and so far ive had the l.e.d S-class lights installed clear corners and remus muffler.


So any idea's?

I vote for neither if your car is of a light color. Low profile roof spoiler (like the one on DrexAppeal's car) if you have a darker colored car. CL grille sticks out like a sore thumb IMO.
