"black-out grill" opinions or pictures?

i'm pondering the complete black grill idea. I have a black car so it's been a thought. I know it's not a new idea but i've never seen a black grill on the CLK. anyone have pictures to share?

We just had this discussion in the Performance forum. I think you'll like this option better than blacking it out... Of course, go with black instead of silver.

For black it's looks alot more intimidating. Any other color I think it would look off.

mine's a gunmetal color that's matched to my rims. Pics can be found in my sig. If you're going to change the grill color, it's best to stick with a color theme that runs throughout the car.
