Default Billet Grille? Whats a good brand and whats a good price?
Does anyone have any good sites for this? I've seen large variations in price and I'm not sure much of it is quality. Help?

i agree with maroman. the ebay once are a cheap price but mine was 3 years old when i removed it and still looked great! clean it up with steel wool from time to time and itll stay looking brand new!

That's exactly what I want. But when I look at the Ebay pics I can't tell if they're shiny everywhere or just the front .

most of the ebay ones are powdercoated black and then they polish the front....mine was that way and the black is faded now after 2 years, but for $38 shipped, I'll buy another one.

Yeaa, it's just polished from the front and everything else is powdercoated black. I can get you some pics of mine, and i believe i payed $50 shipped.
