    Looks like everyone that ordered for 140$ got a great deal. The main sellers are out of stock and/or selling for over 165$. I wonder if it will sell again for 140 or lower?

    Debating that now. Personally I wish I could get chrome letters to take away from the dullness of all black. We will see. Gonna let it ride and grow on me for a while. I think next will be pro tail lights. I did have the blue emblem decal on my Sport grille. This pic is in direct sunlight so it needs something. May still go with blue letters.

    I wonder if they raised the price when eBay offered the $20 off Black Friday sale.

    Just received my grille today from seller motorfansclub (order date 11/11). I hope mine is an isolated issue, but the grille looks terrible. The finish is faded and worn almost like it’s painted. Also, the top looks to be damaged from the molding process. I wonder if he started sourcing grilles from other shops due to high demand. Attempting to return, we’ll see how that goes.....

    That’s unfortunate. Perhaps the blemishes won’t be as apparent once it’s installed.

    I would file a claim and attempt to return it on their dime. That's what I will do if mine comes blemished or with broken tabs. $140 is a good price but I want a new-looking product.

    I agree. It is only $140, but I expect a quality item with no defects. I have already summited a return on eBay. Hopefully everything will go smoothly.

    Looks like the latest batch has seen some flaws. I hate that because mine is flawless. I would start with an email and, if no quick and reasonable response, I would open a dispute with ebay. They will take care of you. I have had 2 disputes over the years and they were promptly resolved.

    I can’t believe there wasn’t a single tab broken off after seeing that box!

    That was my biggest fear. My box was beat up. Luckily all the damage to the box was between the styrofoam blocks. Not a single issue with the grille.

    Thanks. That’s my plan. Was your grille a one piece or two piece?
