    If your that concerned about it then purchase the one off the for sale thread for $325. But being as though you spent close to 40k on a truck and your concerned about the price for an oem grill then maybe the replica is the route for you.

    I received my grille today and installed it. I am going to be real on this and say that the ebay ones and cali raised led are the same replica grille. nothing is different from the 2, but price. I don't regret purchasing from cali raised, it is what it is.

    list is growing fast
    Now the question. What's the difference between the replica and the oem? I can't tell from internet pics. Anyone seen side by side?

    Well for one the letters are certainly built differently. On the OEM the grey portion is held on with 3M tape and small plastic spikes to keep them in place. They can be removed for painting. The replica has letters that are solid injection molded plastic. I just hope they are exactly the same size because I bought the color matched decals from Rich. I should know tonight when it gets here.

    The backside of the replicas have no vertical support. The oem ones do.

    Got mine today and this is what's in the box

    Curious if I am missing something because the letters need to be held in place and the holes are not threaded for those screws

    I used the screws. They went in fine, just need to use a little muscle to make them flush.

    Was there a timeframe for shipping the 2nd batch? I assume the first batch of shipping is completed since I see people posting their new installed grills.
