As far as fitment goes I think most are pretty good.Now about ease of install well that depends.If you go with a bolt over type(leaving your existing grill in place)than it will be an easy install.BUT....all that I've seen of this type you can still see your oem grill behind it if looking close.The replacement grill is the way to go and there is a great thread on how to do the work yourself.The best way is to remove the front clip(fascia).If you look at the how to tread its not as bad as it looks.Did mine by myself in couple hours

I want a grille as well, just scared that it wont look close to OE... all the 300s around here tend to just have the cheaper EBay grilles and I dont care for their looks at all

Southside!!!!

Where'd you grow up? My parents are still down there and I visit every once in a while...neighborhood is still the same.

As for grills...go for deep dish or grip...my two favs!
