A different look for my CLK
Not yet convinced I like the change in looks, but here it is for your assessment. I like the monoblock OEM so had a second set refinished in Black Opal, dressed with a matching black Opal grill, I will have the option to change looks periodically....black for the track, and chrome for a night on the town..

Actually I too am not too thrilled with the new grill and like the classic look better.. The wheels are already painted so will have to live with that, though have the chrome ones too so can swap out when i feel like it. attached an updated pic..

Clear out or black out bumper marker, maybe?

I trust AMG to have better taste than me.
I love my W208 cabriolet's wheels. Like these ones:
Do not like the chrome wheels. Really do not like black wheels. On any car. Just makes the car look like it's filthy dirty, IMHO. Don't know why it always makes me feel that way (i.e., nothing personal Zal, I react this way to every car with black wheels).

I like the older grill better too, but I think it would look better with a flat hood emblem.
Take some tips from Gizzo (car looks nice, btw)... especially about that amber front bumper marker.
I think these two things will make your car look a little more sleek and sportier.
