Grille, cf lip, diffuser, & spoiler....
Finally got around to snapping a few pics after I installed my grille, lip, rear spoiler, and diff.
If you've got a keen eye, you'll notice that I used a row of automotive screws on the diff. Doesn't bother me and that thing is locked down. I also sealed the seam with black silicone and it turned out great.
Also got some new rubber this week.

Too late...already sold the stock grill to another board member.....
Surprised to hear those comments (and not offended - love to hear peoples input!)...because I actually like it.

Lip, spoiler are nice. Grill is horrible.
Im all about personal taste but man, the car would look 100% percent better with a stock grill stock, or painted black.

Edit : here's mine - same colour as your car, with blacked out grill

The grill may not agree with everyone but it's not horrible at all. Just make sure they get a better look at your rear bumper than your front! 
Our E came with this grill and the stock one. I switch them up all the time.

car looks great man. I think if you painted that star grille matte black, it would look sick. AMGFAN sported that look a while back and it looks good man. way to represent the atlantan's
I painted my star grill matte black last year and got tons of compliments in person!

Great lookin car, loving all the mods but I too will have to say that the grille is a no go... The lines of the w211 just don't match having a grille with the MB emblem, in my opinion... Other than that though, you've got yourself a beautiful car!

LOL, after giving this considerable time to soak in, I LIKE the grill.........................Go figure. Grown on me. Just tires of the stock grill-looks too dated to me. Reviewing options and if I went this route, I would two stage paint the entire grill to match the body color.

Looking good! I just ordered that front lip (after cracking a new one I just put on in December) from DCT Motorsports I really like it. Like others I'm not really feeling the grille but it's all about what you like.

Phew.
That grille is HEINOUS. Totally detracts from and eliminates the otherwise beauty of such a car.
Glad we got one back on the good side!
