Months ago I discovered (and lost) a web site from an accesory store that offered glue-on chrome strips for ~$40 US to convert grille to look of 545 grille. I wonder if any of you know about this because it looks easier and cheaper than buying the proper grilles.

I remember that too but someone who bought them said they looked awful on the car and took them off. If you want the look you are better going for the OEM grilles and taking your time when taking out the old ones IMHO.

Just had mine installed today gives the jet black and little more flavor but you have to look for it it is so subtle, i also just got my keys reprogramed to work and get the seats to move upon unlocking the doors. The dealer charged me 78.oo a side for the actual grills and installed them for free but on the invoice they said a savings of 180.00 dollars so i gues they would get 90 dollars aside for this 2 min job they stated 1.8 hrs go figure

Anyone got actual instructions to remove and install the grilles?
