If it were the original star I might put it away somewhere until you have a garrage and put one of the replacments in. Otherwise having a hole in your grille is not only unattractive but perhaps a way for water to get into some unintended areas and cause rust.

At $16.00 a pop let the ghetofabulous have their fun. Their facscination is with the cheapest most replacable part of the car. Most of the people who would do something like that will never have the joy of owning one of these cars. The true joy of having a Mercedes car has nothing to do with the decoration on the grille.
