    The thing is that, last night a IDIOT hit my car while he was backing up, so his insurance is picking up the bill for a new grill.

    I rather have an OEM than a Replica if I don’t have to pay for it.

    U can get teh OEM advantguard grill from the dealer. They're around $400... yeah $400.

    And no the replica QUALITY IS NOT THE SAME. The one from bekker is one of the better replica one out there, but the fitment is still not the same. If you look at the OEM one, the end of the chrome strips are tapered so it tucks under the frame of the grill.

    i got the cheapy one from taiwan, and i had the trim the shit out of it.

    then i noticed this weekend that since the fitment of the grill in the frame sucked, and theres a lot of pressure under one of the clips, over time it eventually bent 2 plastic slats right under the clip.

    Not noticeable unless you are up front, but WTF that's bull shit.

    Has any one order a 600 Look Grill from www.performanceproducts.com?

    They have a 600 Look Grill that looks similar to the Avandgard Grill.


    Part Number: 88-625.

    Any comment will be very help full .. (Quality, fitment, etc..)

    Thanks
