I've had this saved to my desktop for about 2 years now figuring I'd eventually buy it.

When I first put it on my desktop it was around $250 maybe, at the time I was like, damn that's expensive

Well here today is the item in question and the current price this company is selling them for.

Agreed, that price is crazy! Buy an H2 grille on Ebay, you can find nice used ones around $100 and take it to your local body shop and have them spray it another $150 or do it yourself for much less. I had a black grille for a while, I picked it up on EBay $85 shipped and sprayed it with two coats of Krylon flat black spray paint and it looked great. Total investment was under $100.

I'll spray this one any color you want and ship it to your door (in the lower 48) for $750. That's a 25% savings and FREE shipping! LOL!

Any prep work or clear coat?

That's price gouging. I wouldn't buy a .30 bolt of it was the last one on earth if I had to buy it from them.

I seem to remember getting something from them in the past. Think I dealt with Dave.

Anyways .... This place has all the grills.

I got a new colormatched from hummerpartspeople.com for like half that price. Something like $420 for an 08-09 grille. They had the 03-07 ones as well if I recall correctly.

$1k is a horrible price..

you can buy new ones off ebay for way less, and then have it repainted or lineX to white and still come in cheaper than buying from these guys.

If anyone is interested my dealer has a pewter one new in box for 125.00. I wouldn't mind helping a guy out with picking it up and shipping it for them.

I sprayed on a thin coat of galvanized gutter primer (seems to work very well on chrome plastic parts) then two coats of finish paint. Mark (Orange Crush) probably knows the best way, but mine held up well.
