    I bought the OEM Pro grill, but if I had it to do all over again I'd get the knockoff.

    It's just a hunk of plastic, as long as you don't break it putting it in I can't imagine what other differences there could be.

    About $60 plus shipping. It didn't offset the cost that much but every little bit helps.

    Here is the response I got:

    “...
    pleased to receive your inquiry, the net factory wholesale price is 800 RMB a, MOQ is 20, more details of the product, I have to wait until after work, because we in the New Year holiday, thank you!”

    That equals about $126/each.
