Whats best for a R170? Thinking of changing the standard one for a SL style and adding projector headlamps

Piccys of my new grill. Bought it from 55tech in canada but shipped from tiawan.
The headlamps are OEM xenons. There looks like a gap ap the top but its only the camera angle.

That looks like the same grille I put into mine, but mine came from California :D

As racall, I've fitted the Tech 55 grille too and it also came from Taiwan.

The quality is quite good, although not up to the 'brick sh*t-house' engineering quality of the original. Mine's been on the car for about ten months now and I have already noted some pitting in the chrome, especially of the lower horizontal (which probably doesn't get dried thoroughly after washing).

With postage it cost $169 off ebay - and didn't come with the Merc star, although you can use your old one.

This is my grille.

Don't know who's it is as it was on the car when I bought it. The guy I bought it from said he got it off Ebay though so it's probably one of the commonly available ones.
