    @JLee i told you these things were going to sell like hot cakes! And for those of you wondering about the back plate... I'll get better pictures soon but the plate is actually powder coated MGM to match so it's harder to tell verses if it were tan or blue

    @JLee I was reading the website and it says the other option for the metal will never rust. But, how's the metal you are making it? In terms of rusting etc.

    Sorry for all the questions!

    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    The standard one is mild steel if the coating is compromised in any way rust will form. The other option is 304 stainless steel it will not rust if chipped or scratched like mild steel will but it's more expensive to produce.

    @JLee is this made out of the same steel that the recessed version is made out of or does the recessed version come standard with the stainless steel?

    Yeah this worries me cause I live in louisiana and it's hot as hell and been raining a lot. Wonder if that would cause the powder coat to mess up or not. Might switch mine for the 304.

    Ok, just placed an order for the economy grill insert.

    Is the back plate permanently attached or can it be removed if I don't like the Silver Sky Metallic and want to change the color down the road? Any difference on lead time between stainless and plain steel? I went stainless.

    Looking forward to the end of October.

    the back plate is held on with 4 screws and can be swapped out very easily. you could even get a few different plates to change it up throughout the year if you wanted.

    So my math shows that the tw10 code is only taking off 10%, not 20%. I just ordered but would like to know what the deal with that is?

    I just entered it and it comes out to $272 so the code works fine. Did you opt for the stainless?

    Its Steel the recessed grille would be about 1000 bucks stainless steel.

    It's already discounted 10% before the code is put in if you look at the pricing.

    Lower 48 only.

    @JLee

    Can you tell me the dimensions of the slits on the new flush grill insert? Already ordered and looking at getting some amber LEDS to throw in there.
