I'm looking at a sport grille from my B5.5.
I really like these two, but can't tell what's the difference between the two (other than the Kamei badge).
The Kamei is a pretty popular choice, while the Mattig is $30 more but I haven't heard of anyone who has it and don't know much about it.

The Mattig grille photo is too dark to see what the mesh looks like. It's hard to tell the difference on how deep the mesh sits in the grille frame between the two.

I'm planning on replacing the mesh with a heavy Bentley-like steel mesh (either stainless steel or chrome), to complement the chrome trim on my B5.5, so I don't care what the mesh looks like
