Default New Grill

I want to pull the chrome Lariat grill and replace it with a color matched Lariat grill.
I found this one on Ebay - https://www.ebay.com/itm/Painted-Mag...53.m1438.l2649

I like how it has the clear coat finish to match the rest of the paint, unlike an OEM pull that has the matte finish.

Has anyone bought one from this seller?

Steve

Does your truck have a front camera? If so, I’d be really leery of buying any grille that isn’t OEM; I tried buying a couple off Amazon, and even though the camera cutout was there, there was nothing on the back of the grille to actually fasten the camera to. Ask the vendor to send you a pic of the backside. It should look like this:

No, no front camera on mine.

I found an oem take off, but it had a matte finish not shiney.
I would prefer a shiney finish to match the rest of the truck. But I would also prefer oem if possible.

After scrolling thru many many pages of the "magnetic truck thread" on here, I think the OEM pull won't looks the way I want on my truck. They are all a satin or matte finish, and I'm looking for a clear coat shiny finish.

I'm going to give one of the Ebay ones a shot, $180 shipped........and hope for the best.
