although the pic I posted is a lorinser body kit I was wanted to get an opinion of having a black car with the silver mesh down below? Too Japanese import looking?

I would say so.

i don't htink you wanna do that on a black car... on a silver car is doesn't look bad because it goes with the body... maybe if you painted it black as well.. that would work better.....just my 2 cents...

i like the brabus stuff and they're relatively reasonably priced for brabus

I think the Brabus kit has a grill too, mine does its just painted black so you really cant see it. As long as the bottom grill is painted black I think its ok and wont stand out too much. Most kits including the C32, C class sports package all have grills and it looks fine. Just my $.02.

Here is an photoshop effort at the combo. I think red would be nice.

I think that the white/silver looks good on your car Randy. As far as the red goes I'm not good at picturing things in my head, i would have to see a picture. crazy me.

The elegant simplicity of black, tends to lend itself towards minimalizm. "Less is more" when you are working with black, we don't want your rig looking like a hopped up Nissan. But that's only my opinion. Best of luck to you.

The only problem I see is there are little pieces in the lower grill that are open, so the silver accentuates those areas.

In terms of taste...
I often find useful advice in that consumate Icon of fictional propriety, Ian Fleming's "James Bond," who once said, "As long as the collars and cuffs match..." Of course, he was referencing how to tell a real Blonde from a fake Blonde, but I think the analogy has some transfer here.

"As long as the colors of the lower and upper grills match..."

Well there is one reason I like my Magma Red, the stock black looks great, no additons neccessary.
