Thanks Bro here is the link, the price actually dropped I paid $205.00 shipped to my door. It will make your Diamond Silver SL look sharp. The fitment was perfect, but I had a little trouble with the large star to fit the grill. You actually get an OEM star with two different styles of backing, a hollow backing that gives it the 3-D effect and the flat backing.

Thanks Charles! I took a look at the ad...I only saw the distronic star on their pics; Since my car doesn't have distronic (I have the standard 3D star) I'd like to get that version...plus I don't use paypal or ebay, so I have to figure out something with that as well

Charles I'm only seeing the grill with the distronic star? where are the 2 different styles? I thought one version would be for distronic and the other would be for standard? Am I missing something here?

Yes, the grill comes with both stars, However, it states in the ad that distronic will not work with the grill. I suggest calling or e-mailing them first before you order. When I received my grill I had both stars to choose from, obviously I chose the open face star or concave look however you look at it Bro. Let me know if your successful.
