Also it's painted semi-gloss paint with a coat of sanded primer under it.

oxygen your car has always been sick. in my opinion, i think the titanium grill is classier or more luxurious, but the black grills gives it that mysterious sporty look. i like both, but ultimately its up to you.

Dude... I don't need to see the gallery, I know exactly what your car looks like, I see it pretty much EVERY DAY when I hang out with my friends literally next door to your house.

I've seen your car long ago, even before I owned my own W220... I remember it when it had the Lowenhart Wheels and I always see that **** parked at Shell or at 7-11...

It's 5 bolts under the hood... takes 2 minutes to unscrew them.

Grill looks good. Have you tried to match grill with paint of car? I still like chrome with black though.

Grill is painted a satin finish on purpose.
