Got from Jerry and went on in 20 mins. I'm very happy with the look.

Thanks 1000 times!
The look is... different. I will get my grille(s) tomorrow and see them life! But the longer I look at your pics, the better it looks. Oh - life can be so hard. It's almost like sitting in a restaurant with 300 items on the menu. Why not just 1 - would be easier to decide.

Although I fell in love with the looks of my car just the way it is from the factory, I think this grill looks great..... You lose the contrast in colors found in the O.E.M grill but this one blends in very nicely and looks very clean... My only problem is that fugly front plate, its all I see...

Thanks Harley...Well now I definitely have my opinions about the grill color choices:
1. Silver Grill - More justice can be done for this grill when combined with more agressive styling ie..bodykit, aftermarket wheels, etc...
2. Black Grill - A must for a more stock/clean low-profile look...
I'm still not 100% sure which route to take here guys...both look really good.

Great stuff...silver or black...I think it really sets the car off.

WOW!!! I am drooling all over my keyboard with this thread. I am seriously thinking about getting the silver CL grill. It looks really good.
Anyone have any feedback between the silver or the black CL style grills on a Silver E?
