Slick! That's got to be the best custom grille yet

Looks like the Brabus Bullit grille, but at a fraction of the cost!

Wow, that's impressive. It looks great in white, but I think I would like black better as well. I am not really into the CF (not the Brabus) version that a member showed here. The top looked funny; like there there was an extra slat or something.

Ron, I wanted to get a black hood badge too, but AMGs are the only ones available as far as I know. I'm still waiting.

Hey Derspeed, you ever check out that white flat badge that is handmade? I've thought about getting that one to wear when I have my sport grill on. I like the look of that one best on white cars.

That AMG badge looks pretty nice. Does that only come on certain models? The C63 and used E55 I checked out didn't have that one, they had the same flat badge our cars have...plastic poo.

I don't really care for that white flat badge. It looks like a little kid made it. Besides it still has blue in it. I want black and silver or black and white. I almost bought a black badge that says AMG in white, but, well, you know...

I agree, although I am not really sure what the latest Klingon Battlecruisers are looking like these days.
Don't get me wrong, excellent craftsmanship aside, I just don't like the monochromatic look on the front...maybe in black, it would be awesome.

I'd definitely want black. He can always change the color. All I can do is wish I had one.
