It's a grille style that I have been searching for but I don't think the description looks very appealing.. any thoughts?

I have that grill on order, should be here in about a week or so. I had the same mixed feelings and exchanged a few emails with seller. I will post on the fitment etc. Wrapping it in CF as well. Hope the ******* fits right.

PLEASE let me know dude, I was thinking the same thing w the CF.. It's a $200 gamble that didn't look very promising..
Hope it all works out bro!

I will post or make thread when I get it on and everything, still hasn't arrived. The eBay seller is the same as in op.
Fitment is key, guess you have to make your own holes..
Ill test fit before having it wrapped.

I agree on it looking amazing or total ****, there's no in between.
Got it yesterday. Looks real good. No holes for screws just mounting tabs. An inch scuff on the right side. I'd be much more upset if I wasn't planning on wrapping it.
Will get it on this week as is.

Half.. And this is after several emails with seller regarding fitment.
Just bought a regular black one on eBay.
Wonder what shipping will cost and he better refund for this junk.

Honestly think the best bet is find a good body shop, cut the center bar out of the OEM grille, and make the slats all individual pieces,and shave the little emblem. If that makes any sense.

On a completely different note I need an E63 rear bumper, anyone know anything that'll help?

Oh hey guys...whoops, yea, sorry I didn't see this earlier.
Bought the grill to go with my build originally, and the shop that was doing my E63 conversion said it was junk and put on a stock grill instead. Out of curiosity, I pulled it out of the packing before getting ready to send it back to C-MOD, drilled some holes in it for the mounting points, and threw her on. Didn't turn out too bad, but anything closer than 10' you could tell the fitment was junk around the edges. Also, it was completely undersupported and way too flimsy. After having it on for a day, the bottom completely broke off and flew off on the highway doing 80-90 mph. See the "after" shots below haha...this is one of those mods/purchases that you write off as part of the ongoing tuition cost of life's lessons.
Here are some pics with it on:
And the aftermath!
