Decent aftermarket "diamond" grill options?

After finding out how simple it was to remove the Mercedes star on the front so I can wrap it, I got adventurous and decided to try to remove the grey "wings" on the grill to wrap that as well and managed to snap a tab off the back before I chickened out and pushed it back on. It still attaches perfectly fine, but I've found that I'm starting to enjoy more of the aesthetic things in life and have been modding my cars in that respect as well as the typical things gear-heads do. With that in mind I really like the whole "diamond" grill look of the newer vehicles and was wondering if the Chinese offerings on ebay were any good since I've had no luck finding vendors in the States that offer anything for this model car.

Here's a link to the best offering I can find on ebay.

Thanks for any advice!
