Mesh Grille inserts ??

Has anyone seen these in person? www.racemeshgrilles.com

According to email reply to my inquiry, product not available for 63's due to

"We have tried to work with the OEM AMG grilles and were unsuccessful in fabricating into them with the RaceMesh material. The OEM material is a perforated / expanded sheet metal, while the RaceMesh material is a true woven wire mesh cloth, and is not "form-able" into the same shape/contour as the OEM material."

I really like the look compared to the OEM AMG mesh. Anyone know of another source?

not feeling it at all, too much silver on the front end.

quit modding everything you see on the car! the stock already looks nice! I bet if the oem grill were silver, you probably paint black?

If you don't like it don't look at it Seriously most the guys on this Forum LOVE modding their cars (Me included) & though some or any mods may not be to your liking, you have to remember it's NOT your car that's being modded
