I'll be honest i miss the big star, IMO you should have painted the original grill and left the star chrome..or maybe just paint your new grill all black to match the rest of the black on the car. BUT i love that CF lip at the bottom

yeah, i get mix opinions on the grill, but its ok. I like it alot, once you look at it alot, it starts to grow on you. Its growing on me alot, plus i wanna be unique and different from the other w209's. Its just personal preference. thanks for your opinion though...

No offense, but I actually have to say that I don't like it. In fact, I am not sure if I even want to install my Brabus bumper kit now.

I dont get it, what does the grill have to do with the bumper. Brabus does not sell there grills to the public. You car will look the same minus the starless grill.

Yeah i called brabus, Apparently, they wont sell those. Very exclusive. most of the mods you see on the K8 car are all custom job, the CF add-on, and the hood, (which i really really like too.. ). I think there is a chance to get the k8 bumper, but there needs to be a group buy of 10 ppl, and the price is alot higher than the regular brabus bumper.

That looks nice. I've been wanting to paint my grille brilliant silver to match my car and seeing yours has motivated me to do it. I plan on keeping the star and painting the factory grille to match the car.
Thanks for the pics.

I like the lip, but im unsure about the grill, everyone to their own though looking sharp.

Maybe I should look at getting a front bumper?

Regards

They are 8.5 in front and 10 in the rear. As for the CF lip, it is custom made. I dont think there is a price that brabus has for this particular item

The brabus bumper is from brabus and its original. As for the CF lip, this is the same lip as brabus used on the K8 Car. This lip is custom made. Brabus does not sell this to the public. I had to get the lip and Grill custom made for my car. Hope this helps.
