overpriced. There are much cheaper ones that look exactly the same (only without the mesh) on ebay.

Any side shots? The bottom part doesn't look right at all compared to K1's full DCF and Brabus's Bullit one.

Our customer ordered this because he didn't like the Brabus type without the frame. So we started to make this one!
Price will of course as high as the first handmade one since we already have the molds to make this grill!

The gap on the drivers side is from the hood not being closed all the way, look at the headlight in picture 2. This grill has a 100% sure fit!
