I like the star grill but the star on that autoblz grill looks too small. I think the star grill from mymercedes.com looks a lot better.

Cl and SL are so much different
the star of SL is 6.5"
definately your E-class will not need a larger diameter of Star

Re: doctor

doctor,

post more pics from different angle. i think this grill will look great on w211 IF you paint the blades into silver (not just plain black as what you have there). CLK grill and SL grill styles are the best i think.

All black grill on black car - great.
Not great on silver car.
I think you need some chrome on the grill for a white or silver car.
IMHO
