Brabus Accented Black Grill
Anybody familiar with what that looks like? I just saw a picture and think it looks a million times better leaving the chrome accent on the grill, rather than all black. Is this something that can be bought or just bring it to a shop to paint?

Are you talking about the Brabus CF grill? If so it is only available with the complete body kit. There are many here who wish they could get it for their car me included. I plan on painting my grill this weekend if I can use my friends shop.

Yeah, I have a black 300 as well. I think flat wouldnt look right. My brother has a 335xi and got the chrome trim vinyl wrapped in flat black, which happens to work better for that car. I'd love to see pics of your car with the grill when its done!

If you have black car, I'd go glossy black. otherwise, probably satin/flat.

Where can I buy an extra grill (sport grill)? I leased my car and just realized that in the event that I don't buy it out at the end of the lease, they may hit me with a crazy fee for painting the grill. How much will a new grill cost? Thanks!

AD charges around 300.00 for a grill they have gone for as low as 50.00 on E-bay but those are few and far between. I had won one on E-bay but gave it up to someone whose grill was destroyed by a brick dropped from a truck.

Thank you to everybody above for the help! I think I'm going to get an extra grill and have that painted and keep the original just to play it safe with the lease agreement

I bet the dealer would never notice and if he does order one from the parts dept and install it right in the parking lot.
