Best CL Grille

I bought one of the CL grilles a couple of weeks ago. The fit and finish are super. Installation takes about 10 minutes. Don't forget to replace the hood star with the flat emblem to complete the look. Here's the link:

You won't be disappointed.

Pics of the silver, white, and black grilles with the chrome accents are on eBay, but Jerry at formymercedes gives outstanding service and he has better prices for the same grille.

Thanks...really looks nice. Wonder how that would look against my Pewter paint? Any comments. I am used to seeing black in most grills and just trying to get a feel for the gray plastic.

Congrats Jack! If you know a competent paint shop...you can always paint the grill Pewter. I might paint mine Tectite Grey down the road.

Hey.. You guys think the price on those grills are gonna go down in the future? they are so high because they are new and hot right now. The cost of the grill is probably around $50 in Taiwan only....

no denying. the Grill is nice. I have talked to the seller on the phone, too. He sounds like a nice guy. But, I think the price might go down in the near future. If not... maybe I will get it when I go back to Taiwan and find the manufacturer. I can't imagine it being more than $200.....

Spend the $59 more dollars with Jerry...he is a fair seller, provides individual great service and a great product. Enjoy the grill now...

That signature image is doctored by Photoshop. I "posterized" it and it appears darker than normal. On my websites, it looks pretty natural to me (Pewter) but it depends on monitor settings. Also the ones on my website below were taken on a cloudy day (odd for Las Vegas).

see http://www.nevadajack.us

Tectite is a much darker grey...see LIONHEAD's.

Will be replacing the images when the grill is installed with updated photos.
