I think it would look better with an all black grill (keep the star chrome)

I think it would look best with the original grill (3 or 4 slat depending on year) painted black (with a chrome star).

Agree about the black grill plus the lights need to be the same color. What does the back look like?

Nice job, now all you have to do is update the Running light with a T10 LED bulb to color match the DRL LED's. What about pics of the Rear bumper?

I updated the front bumper without changing the bubble lights...

the less were mounted to the grill with screws and clips.

then i updated to the 2009 SL65 conversion, front and back...which i currently have.

I will be considering selling all the pieces off because I will doing the Black Series Sl65 in 2 months, and will be selling off the 2009-2012 SL65 pieces, all while keeping my vented hood.

I will be selling the front bumper, both fenders, rear valance with diffuser, and rear bumper. If you have the 2003-2008 year run, you will need the headlights for the conversion.
