I've been doing research on these cars for while now, kinda put off buying one. Pretty sweet deal came up and I took the next flight out to Dallas.
Formally KTSRT6's vehicle, its a SRT6 Aero Blue just shy of 60k on the odometer. he babied the car pretty well, and it has the aftermarket mods I've been looking for, in a car that was driving distance from where I live.
Carbon Fiber Paint Matched Hood with Jag Vents (From the late MikeR's car)
Drilled and Slotted Rotors
Chrome Grill.
SRT6 Badge Removal
Kenwood Headunit, door speakers, amp, and 10in sub (I think)
My other car is that fancy *** Volvo S80 T6, for commuting and stuff (WAY more comfortable than the SRT)
Future Plans: I want to replace the chrome billet grill with a black set from zunsport. Oil Catch can, Tints, HID's in the Lows and Fogs, replacing various bulbs with LED bulbs (both interior and exterior), Getting and painting that rear diffuser set on ebay (I think it looks nice). And getting some of those "AMG 3.2" badges instead of going with SRT6 badges (unless someone argues me out of it)

True, Assuming people know what it is.
however it's not my first attempt at the modded car scene, just my first attempt at one that was actually fast.

Get rid of the grille, they do not look right to me and I hear they scratch the paint.
The Zunsport allows you to see what lies behind it in many lights. You have to paint everything black behind the grille to get it looking better.
It is the best after market grille but I would not have one. The OEM grille hides all that lies behind it.
The 3.2 AMG badge is not correct either in many eyes, some say it makes you look like a poser. It is what it is, I say live with it. It is a bit of a sleeper.

I agree with the part about the AMG badges making the car a poser, however, the upside to this is since I removed every vestige of Chrysler and Crossfire and replaced them with AMG and logo, I have a lot less foolish people trying to "race" me. It seems that "AMG" carries some credibility! I made my own grill, it's a one of a kind, but still not totally happy with it, I might try a different design this winter. I put a strip of rubber edging so as not to scratch the paint. I'm thinking that a grill with vertical bars that actually mimics the stock profile might be nice, we'll see. Something on the line of the Merc AMG GT-R.

Maybe I want them to know...
I considering painting part of the oem grill blue or anthracite grey, And I don't hate the design of it, I just don't want to be reminded of other Chryslers.

AMG seems pretty classy.
You should call your grill the "Prison break Bentley"

Thanks, will do. I'm waiting half a tick before modding it, but getting either a stock or zunsport grill seems to be where I'm heading. Since the stock used grill looks like its kinda pricey, and then I would have to paint it, I will probably just go zunsport.
I also think I'm going to get some quik-latch pins and paint them stock color then have them installed. The Carbon fiber hood rattles around a little much for my comfort. I can also tell that the single shock used to lift it could be creating a slight warp to it.
The stock grill painted in a gloss makes the vertical bars more reflective and visible. it looks more tuff.
When you mount the oem grill it looks better as far forward as you can.
dont push the grill In at the bottom , just screw the top screws only and a bit forward .
Its fine , and wont fall off.
And it Looks Better Tuffr forward ! imho

I will consider it, I'll have some paint soon to color things aero blue. I'm not a fan of the stock grill being so expensive. It's a basic ***** stock part, the market should be flooded and they should hard to get rid of
