2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission A little help on a new grill please.

[Sageair]

The factory grill on my 2001 has become salt pitted. I found this replacement grill on Ebay. Please take a look at item number 2459318856 and tell me what you think. Thanks.

Doesn't look bad to me from what I can tell. Can't really tell if it is a good plating job, or if it would come off easy. Wouldn't hurt to have a close up pic though, or a view from the back. Don't know what something like it is really worth for sure. For the price, you can't go too wrong.



Me personally, would prefer black honey-comb, but that is easy to fix.

I just put one of these (or one very similar) on a couple weeks ago. Quality's pretty good, though it's definitely not as good as the OEM. Single piece instead of the honeycomb being pressed into the frame. Chrome looks good. You'll have to get the Ram emblem from the dealer--I don't have the part number, but the parts guy didn't have any trouble finding it. $13, IIRC.



Only thing I don't really care for is the honeycomb seems a bit thicker than my old OEM. But then again, ~$60 is a lot better than the $190 the junk yard wanted for a used one, and I don't even want to think about the dealer price...
