I would have to see it in person to make any judgement about it, although I'm not a big fan of chrome so idk.

Most on here are trying to remove as much chrome as possible, so you'll probably get mainly negative replies. The grilles remind me of the one on the CTS-V. All up to personal taste, however.

If the chrome look is the look you're going for, I guess that an okay choice. What about the luxury grille?

It might not be the best looking grille for the W204... even if you painted it black or body color it still looks bland in terms of styling

I'd take the lower grille but painted black.

The upper grill looks like the aftermarket ones seen on many Chrsyler 300's -- not a good look. Chrome mesh has no place on our cars.

w204 grille


you will see lots of nice grilles. Do you have a pic of your current car/setup. Color and wheel style plays into the grille. Is your car tinted at all? I can point you to some nice grilles, post your info/pic
