Grille Question

I am looking around for a good replacement for my stock grille which has a few dings in it from highway debris and i want to go with a fully chrome one rather than the stock one which has the plastic slats

I was looking on ebay and found 2 possible candidates, anyone who either has one of these or knows about them ,your advice would be appreciated

I prefer the avantgarde grille but it is a bit more expensive

I am also not sure exactly what is entailed to install either of these

The "chrome" grill is just 3M chrome edging that you see people use on their door edges. It sucks - I fell for it - I took it off. Go with the avantegarde or just spray your grill flat black and keep the original chrome trim.

My brother bought a avantgarde or V-12 grille for my mom's e320 sedan, it looks awesome, i'd go for that if i were you, don't ever go the cheap route with a benz.
