Thanks Benzo Boi..
I really like the CL Expression too.. it looks better than other.. 4mymercedes grill looks close to the expression one and the value is great... but CL Expression cost too much comparing to other and yes its worth to pay such a big amount for a grill..

Just remember that the CL Expressions grill is an actually OEM CL grill modified. Its the best IMO. Second best is the formymercedes grill...

I agree that the expression looks the best but without daytime
pics.. it's hard to say that the formymercedes grill doesn't look
just as good for half the price.

Ya, I gotta agree with noble.. There's something about the
expression grill that sets it apart from the others. I wonder
how the formymercedes grill would look on a black C

I really really like the ForMyMercedes.com grill. I think I'm going to order one for my wife's C320 Sport Sedan. Her car is Pewter Metallic, just like yours Blake P. Should I get it also match to color of the car (Pewter), or regular chrome ? What looks best ? Couldn't really tell what color yours was from the pics.

awesome ! thanks !
I'll go for the black. Now that you say that, I took a look again at your grill, and it does look really good. I think I'll surprise her and just put it on while she's reading a book or something. I had heard that Jerry's grill was very very easy to install. I guess if I could retrofit a 2005 COUPE MB grill on my 2003 COUPE, then this should be a breeze !

how much is a CL grille for the CL from the dealership. If we compare that retail price with the price of the Expression "modified" grille....to decide the overall value.

I just got my grille from jerry today and I put it on right away. The packaging looks very professional and got here in 3 days. The star is HUGE. The grille itself is big too, and takes up the entire space for the grille leaving no gaps. Definitely go for the black grille. The front of my car has the "full" look now with the grille on. I think it matches with the amg body kit perfectly, and brings out the bi-xenon headlights. I'll put up pictures tomorrow. btw install took less than 10 minutes for the grill and the flat emblem.

Hey, just so you all know, i just got my formymercedesgrill.com grill on the ride, and it looks unreal.. I was orignally thinking i would buy it and sell if i didnt like, but there is now way that stock grill willever see the car again. Its deff. worth it and looks like it was supposed to be there. FItment was amazing, took no time and just looks real nice and clean.
I'd post pics but i don't have a digi with me at school and my car is pewter silver too, so it'd kinda be pointless. Chris
