the grille has an indent for the badge so it'd look bad without it. Supposedly the stock grille is different in dimensions from the S-line.
My guess is ~$900-1k in parts alone.

well I just saw a lava gray S-line. I have lava gray. Now that I've seen my color with a body kit of some sort, I'm starting to dislike the standard front bumper.
I may go votex or s-line, but it seems the s-line is going to require a lot of work, extra coin. Plus, I don't have an s-line, so that is kind of corny. Like putting a cobra hood on a GT. Big NO-NO in my book!

I personally would never do things like swapping unless the internals are the same if you know what I mean. When I see people do that it just says to me you only can dream of having the real thing (whether that's true or not).

some rough list prices
cover is $400
grilles L&R are $50 each.
reflectors are $25 each
tow hook cover is $17
fog lamps are $100 each
main grille is $100 ish
So $850 for nearly every single possible part you can throw at it.
What is actually required
cover
reflectors
tow hook cover
main grille
about $567
I'd live without fog lamps and I'd make some mesh grilles for the sides... those openings are great for brake ducts or an oil cooler.
