You know, I'd even take a non-CF version of this grill. I just think the shape is awesome. And it would cost much less, I'm sure. I dunno if I wanna spend a few thousand for just a grill. $3000 for the Brabus version, I heard? Maybe that's Brabus rip-off pricing.

The only negative with the decreased cost, I suppose, would be that exclusivity would effectively disappear.

thats brabus rip off pricing man. once a replica comes out it'll be several hundred dollars but not $3,000. maybe $500-700? (could be wishful thinking)

vcruiser - that will look INSANELY HOT. p.s. i have a photoshop request for you...

That pShop looks freakin droolingly awesome. I want!

I also really like the picture. The slightly overexposed look and the orange-ish light above makes for quite a dramatic effect. It could be cropped just a tad on the sides to make a nice sig pic, I think. I like the reflection on the windshield too. Nice picture!

Oh, man! You really make me so exciting.
So I am going do this next week.
My plan is to make a CF overlayed front grill and see how it look.
Because my car is not black or white, so I think I will leave the star with original chrom not in CF or black.

wow i wonder how long its gonna take for someone to start making some grill inserts that look like the ones on the bullit, such a sick setup. I think I'm gonna stick with a black out luxury grill tho on my c350. We'll see how that works out once it comes...

See! It's freaking beautiful!




I think the Brabus rear spoiler in CF like the ones on Ebay is pretty nice too.



And I'm digging the interior padding on the sidewells inside the car. It's like a psychoward padding because you're going to go nuts with a Black Arrow Bullit.

Somebody needs to just replicate this at a cheaper price point now, sometime, whenever. But soon.
