Grille mods...to blackout or not
In my constant quest to make my vehicles unique (like there's another CL65 AMG around here anyway 
)...Looking at V12Godspeed's black CL, I was playing with photoshop and looking at the different patterns I could do with the grille.
I could black out the grille completely, leaving the mercedes symbol in the middle....or I could black it out, but leave the chrome edges....
I would do this on a spare grille and put the stock grille on a shelf
opinions?
STOCK:
ALL BLACK:
BLACK, LEAVING THE CHROME EDGES:

Well if i was gonna do it
I would get a carbon fiber grill and keep the star chrome....
And then add a carbon fiber front lip to set it off.....
That would be the best look IMO

i have seen the pics of cars without the side markers and i fully agree with you...they look soooo much better I'm not sure if it is legal here to get rid of them completely, but the least i'd do is make them clear instead of orange
