Very inexpensive sport grill - why?

Any idea why this price is so reasonable?

Many that you see elsewhere are 200+

TIA

Bob

Ummm. Not sure why it is so cheap, but you might want to ask to pay the list price of $100.07 and not the sale price of $112.84.

Yeah, well they also say w/Logo and it does not come with it. I'm staying clear.

You should have seen under the tree when I had the Grand National - mechanic gift certificates , blinker tinted covers, a cardboard piece that filled in a gap between the spare and the trunk floor, 3rd brake light insert that read 'turbo'.

TommyGunn,

Have you noticed a large inprovement in your cars performance with the mods you did to the engine?

I have a 96 with the same M104 engine and was wondering.

Thanks

No. I have to disagree. "To each his own", perhaps, but with enough vodka, everything is beautiful....

The fact that I still think it is ugly must mean that I need a drink.
