I don't mind that it's not OEM, I bought the chrome tailgate trim piece that was OEM and it started bubbling. It was over $200!!! I'll post pics when it's installed.

Installed new grille today. It did require drilling for correct fitment. It was easy to drill, just unexpected. I think I'll have the area (about 2") underneath the grille just on the inside wrapped with high gloss black vinyl, to make the grille more aggressive and appear larger. I think the black is the way to go with white, overall it's more cohesive with the bottom black mesh areas.

That looks great Scadobe. Don't think it would fit my GLK cause I have a camera under the grill mounted emblem.
