I've never seen it in person, but I don't like the chrome strips with no star.

powder white...lol

i think it would look nice with no star and the whole grille color matched with no chrome or silver

i am curious about fitment/quality. for $500 i would hope the quality is there but nowadays craftsmanship is not a given.

anybody on here ever seen it first hand or have it? i am very curious...

That looks good. Like the other posters said, I think it would be a little better without the chrome strips. You can get it painted though.
