CL Sport Grill

Seems like there are several different versions of the grill with the 3-pointed star. There are subtle differences, but they are still different. I tend to like the ones with larger stars.

I have been doing my own homework, but it's so hard to tell from just a picture without actually being able to measure. I 'd hate to order one and get the wrong thing. Anyone know who sells the best (largest star) CL grill for a 430? Is there a board concensus on which brand or supplier is best for the CL look?

Thanks guys.

No longer car shopping...
That's not a grill, THIS is a grill (C.Dundee)

Ben's car has the grill/hood combo ($1,800 to $2,000). The grill is NOT available separately.

Search the forum for 'front grill' or 'sport grill'. There are several posts on this topic. SCHATZ makes the sports grill (they used to make the small and large star however I think they only make the large star now) and it is available for under $300.00. PerformanceProducts.com carries it. Obviously the grill, hood combo looks the best but if you want close to the same look without spending the 2 grand check out the SCHATZ grill.

fyi..I think performanceproducts.com also carries the hood, grill combo.

Ben's Expression grill is definitely the cleanest looking grill... the others have too much chrome... IMO its either the expression grill/hood, or leave it as stock (or blacking it out - more sporty). Having the small Star in the stock looking grill just doesn't look right (not to insult any who does, just my opinion)
