Thanks for the kind words Trilogy! headers are G888888T! your gonna have to cut the heat sheild to the steering shaft. another member said there was no issue with cutting the heatsheild to the steering shaft cause the headers are coated and do great with heat!

^^^^ Ditto. Never been a fan of the center vertical on the grille. A Benz is a compliment i guess, reminds me of a Hyundai Genesis Sedan Grille. But, i am glad you can take constructive criticizm. Not trying to be a hater, aside of that, nice GS.

With that said and judging by your sig, I think it's a good upgrade from the grill you had before. I think it's a nice grill but something I would not not add to my car for reasons already mentioned here.
