This thread is the perfect example of why/how things are cheap for a reason.

They're all mass produced so they all carry the same risk of issues with fit. Price tag or "herp derp made in Murica" doesn't automatically equal better quality.

In most cases there is a direct correlation to price and quality. Price doesn't insure perfection, wasn't implying that it did, but there are reasons why similar products cost more. Be it quality of material, or workmanship involved.

Some of the OEM grills look better than aftermarket. But the good looking OEM grills are pricey... like the 2014 STX Sport grill or the 2014 FX4/FX2 Appearance Pkg. grill aka Tremor grill.

I'm about to upgrade to the black fx4 factory Hid's on my 2012 lariat here soon and I can't find a decent replacement grille to replace the factory chrome one. Anyone got any ideas that would match good and not look tacky?
