Thanks man. I was definitely considering it, and still am, but I kinda like the look of the chrome and black in person. Considering the side views are aluminum, and the window trim is too I kind of like the flow it has. Only time will tell though, as of right now I'm really looking forward to the front splitter to see how it sets off the black look.

Looks good Jon. Where did you get it? Looks similar to the grill from the black optic pack...in retrospect, would you get the black optic pack if you were ordering from scratch?

You're absolutely right, it is the black optics grill...good eye switch.

I don't know if this is against the rules so if it is mods please delete it.
I bought the grill off europrice, and I have to admit the customer service was great.

I wouldn't get the entire black optics if I could have considering I'm a fan of the aluminum trim (windows, mirrors), but I wish I could have gotten the grill installed from the start.

No it's a factory black S5 grill. It's straight from the black optics package.

Haha yeah, I was so happy I had to take a picture. I'll take some better ones today, though the car is a bit dirtier now due to the stupid light snow we got today

edit- Sun just poked through, maybe I'll wash it if the roads dry up!

Did you install it, or pay someone? If paid, how much?

You have the euro-plate filler, right? Does that have holes in it for mounting?
