Question Need Opinions On CL Grill vs. Sports Grill

I know alot of you guys have changed out your grills and I might add they look damn good. I'm in need of some direction as to one what's the differences between the sports grill (w/ star) and the CL grill (w/ star). I know there must be something I'm missing because the cost for the CL is quite a bit more. Also if you have a picture of your car please forward it to me so I can do an apples to apples comparison.

Thanks

Right now the hottest one is the CL grille... espeically if you can get it color matched to your car. They actually cost about the same (~$200.) on Ebay so the choice is yours.

The only difference I ever see is that the "sport" grill has two bars that appear to split the grill in half (one above and one below the star) so that the star is smaller than the grill face. With the CL, the star fills the grill face so there are no gaps between the top and bottom of the grill and star. At least, that is what my eyes behold.....

I love CL type grill on S-Class!
A couple of things that stop me from changing mine are:
1. I love to see the standup star
2. Distronic radar won't fit into CL grille...
