Is this too much?

Some one put a lux grill and emblem on a sport before I bought it apparently. Thinking about putting sport grill back on but leaving the hood ornament. Found a pic online of some one who did it. Is it just too much? Opinions.

Probably a little too much on the emblems, that just imo. But that's what nice about customizing, otherwise everything looks the same.

I second this opinion. It would be a bit much.

I agree, but I like the hood ornament.
Sport with luxury grille and hood ornament seem to be a good balance, in my opinion.

I'd prefer a flat badge to the star, grill looks good that way

Not to my preference. I'd remove the star ornament and change it into a flat one.

Flat badge for sure. No need for the double statement.
