I was really happy with this buy. The stock grill that came with the car originally is very pitted and has a couple of problems with some of the bars. It would have cost a fair amount of money to rechrome it, so I decided to buy a new repopped version. Bob Drake sells one for $795 plus shipping which is cheaper than having the old one redone. MAC has the same piece as Drake and they only wanted $423.95 with free shipping. To really make my day, MAC was having a sale when I ordered and I got the new grill for only $381.55 no shipping charge&#8230; I be one happy camper! \ud83d\ude42&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4770\" style=\"width: 2010px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/csmonroe.net\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Monroe_20170407_140925_Orig_003_.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-1\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4770\" data-attachment-id=\"4770\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/csmonroe.net\/Blog\/2017\/04\/07\/some-shiney-parts-came\/monroe_20170407_140925_orig_003_\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/csmonroe.net\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Monroe_20170407_140925_Orig_003_.jpg?fit=2000%2C3008\" data-orig-size=\"2000,3008\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;4.5&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Conrad Monroe&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;NIKON D100&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;(c) Conrad Monroe - 2011&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1491574165&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;\\u00a92016 Conrad Monroe&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;21&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0166666666667&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Monroe_20170407_140925_Orig_003_\" data-image-description=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/csmonroe.net\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Monroe_20170407_140925_Orig_003_.jpg?fit=199%2C300\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/csmonroe.net\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Monroe_20170407_140925_Orig_003_.jpg?fit=681%2C1024\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4770\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/csmonroe.net\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Monroe_20170407_140925_Orig_003_.jpg?resize=940%2C1414\" alt=\"\" width=\"940\" height=\"1414\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/csmonroe.net\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Monroe_20170407_140925_Orig_003_.jpg?w=2000 2000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/csmonroe.net\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Monroe_20170407_140925_Orig_003_.jpg?resize=199%2C300 199w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/csmonroe.net\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Monroe_20170407_140925_Orig_003_.jpg?resize=768%2C1155 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/csmonroe.net\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Monroe_20170407_140925_Orig_003_.jpg?resize=681%2C1024 681w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/csmonroe.net\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Monroe_20170407_140925_Orig_003_.jpg?w=1880 1880w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-4770\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(c) Conrad Monroe &#8211; 2017<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The backorders are dribbling in at a steady pace.
