    Poser is a bad word IMO. People have been creating "clone" cars for a long time. Mainly because there weren't a lot of those cars produced. They were limited. People built clones really as a tribute and is a testament to the the original designers. Mix and match is normal, it's part of the customization process. As long as people are honest I think it's all good.

    Don't see anyone calling people 'posers' for buying a pro grill. A grill isn't being a poser IMO, it just looks significantly better.

    Now the kid who put pro badges on his SR5 or whatever, that's a different story...

    It's started in the first page lol. Posing or creating a clone is just a tribute and testament to the original designers and a way for people to enjoy the look without the cost. All I'm saying is if people are honest with what they actually have when asked I think it's cool. Would I create a pro clone out of mine nope. I will probably get the grille though at some point. Love that old school look. Cheers

    That would be my guess. $267 beat me by $20.
    Still better than the $400 - 500 range that I wasn't willing
    to spend.

    I have read about guys getting them with 5-6 tabs broke and said it wasn't an issue.

    I see your pain! I lived in NorCal as well. When I saw the shipping cost I was shocked because the shipping estimate was about $59 before the check out page. Then I kept trying back and forth to reload the screen and see different price pops up each time. I sent the email to the seller at night, woke up in the morning and check the page again, found that the shipping cost got lowered to around sixty. I immediately check out the item and that's how I got this price.

    I bought one with 3 missing tabs and it mounted on just fine. You shouldn't have any problems. Enjoy the fact you got a killer deal :thumbsup:
