step 1: go on ebay
step 2: buy a grill from ebay- you choose the color. if you want black, for a more durable finish, buy one, and have it powdercoated black. longer lasting finish than the black painted ones
step 3: get back on ebay, and buy a 67-69 or late 70's SS emblem. or for a bowtie, pick up a 69 chevelle (i think) emblem -leave it blue, or paint/powdercoat the color of your choice
step 4: mount bowtie emblem to grill
step 5: mount grill to car
step 6: sit back and admire your new look
step 7: get camera, take pics, and post up on LS1tech

The difference is probably in shipping. The 70 dollar one most likely has free shipping and the 17 dollar one most likely has a shipping of 50 bucks or so. I ordered a black billet grill for my old z on ebay a while back. You could probably contact one of the sellers and see if they have them in black.
