    I found two vendors who offered this unit, but haven't had any luck with either.

    I started to place the order online with eautogrilles.com and my computer flagged the source as suspicious. I then tried calling the phone number and had no machine or answer, then I found the US address they listed was a residence in Southern Cal, but not a business. The text on their website claims they are a SoCal outfit, but the english is suspect and looks a little like it was written by Borat.

    I then tried to order it from Paramount Automotive (paramount-automotive.com). There was no shopping cart on their site and it took them ten days to email me back that they no longer had this item and tried to sell me a billet unit.

    Have been pretty busy with work and haven't pushed this any farther...just an update for those of you who are interested in this grill.

    Very true! PayPal has saved me a few times. Here's another site that I found it on, but I've never ordered anything from them either. It looks like it's in stock and fast shipping. SFX Performance :notsure:

    I had a lady pull out and stop right in front of me which resulted in an instant modification couple years ago. I bought my new complete grill from Auto Parts Warehouse for about $40, shipped for free.

    This is what it should look like. I tried photo shopping it into the grill. If anybody has any color requests i could photo shop the grill on for you.
