Painted eBay Grille *PICS*
Welp I got my painted grille from pershingauto via eBay for $89 shipped on the FedEx truck today.
Not sure if the grille louvers come out of the stock grille but these don't. They are just an egg-crate style and are molded in with the rest of the grille.

Other than that it seems sturdy enough.. I'll get some on the truck pics tonight.
*EDIT*
Pics on the truck... Then painted the louvers and headlamp buckets black.

You can still get ones with "DODGE" on it from the dealer. Just be prepared to hand over 3x the money
! I have had 2 aftermarket ones on my truck, and haven't had good luck. I reinforced the first one with fiberglass so it wouldn't crack in the usual spot by the hood latch. Worked great till it got smashed in a wreck. Second one came cracked right out of the box!! I really missed the letters as well, so I bit the bullet. My factory one should be here in the next few days. I really like the louvers on that one you have there, looks really sharp all painted up!! Nice job!! I wish I would have seen these when I was redoing the front of the truck, I considered doing a painted one but all I could find was chrome.

Online catalog page 73. about 16.00 each. Not oem!! I get replacement panels there all the time. Not the best but not the worst either.

If you don't mind, can you PM me a price you paid from the dealer?
Thanks
