Black grille: anyone have experience with this seller
Hi -

First time poster. Spent the last 3 weeks reading as much as possible on the forum. Fantastic resource the community has assembled.

I've got an 06 Flint Grey E55 AMG. I've got a vision for what I want to do with the car, both interior / exterior. I've decided to start with the exterior and DIY some of the simpler mods.

My question is, does anyone have experience with this ebay seller or his product?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...#ht_1784wt_982

TIA

I saw that thread. I accidentally pasted the wrong ebay link indicating the wrong seller I was inquiring about. I'll go elsewhere for help.

I've thought about using it - but my understanding is that it's very 'matte' like and I'm not certain that's what I want.

It is matte...And like you are getting at it's all about personal preference...It is beyond easy to get on and off though
