I had to drill my own holes (my buddy did ) and double sided tape to get it to stay, but once it dried in 5-7 hours it is perfect... i go 120+ and it has not shifted.

i wanted to get the expensive ones aswell but they are all discontinued, and im not a fan of CF

by the way it cost about 140 + shipping from hong kong. So about 250 all together. But i like the look and i would buy it again if i needed to. If i decide to get rid of it i can let you know. But i dont think im going to until the lease is up in 15 months. Tell you truth if i stick with IS and this fits i might keep it anyway. BUT i was also thinking of painting the stock grille black and putting that back on.

Though i really like how this looks, might just paint the bezel black. I made a thread with a poll on whether i should paint it black.. it was like 25 -23 people or something... 25 said paint it..

but thats so close that im still undecided.
okay thanks much, yeah id like to get your grille and paint the chrome black because im getting rid of every piece of chrome on my car and getting all black accessories, black tails, black emblems, black rims, everything haha

So if there is no speaker in there for the non-ml cars then whats up with the grill? This brings about the possibility of installing a speaker in there...

Anyone here tried that?

haha you should totally do it, that'd be sick, we would have twins

yeah i wish i had the 350 but i got the 250 for the MPG and its still a pretty quick car, for me atleast because i went from a big 6.0 V8 truck to my IS and its sooo much lighter and quicker haha
