Silver Lariat,
Thanks for the suggestion but I've been there, tried that with that exact seller.
Actually they are up to $110US on e-Bay last time I looked and I am up in Canada. They will only ship it to me via UPS for an extra $20US. Add to that the fact that UPS charges us poor Canadians HUGE brokerage fees of about $40US more when they come to deliver and soon you can see it's just not a good deal by the time it arrives here. ($170US is about $200 up here)
As a result, I will not deal with anyone that uses UPS. I only accept USPS deliveries as they only charge $5 bucks and more often then not they do not even charge that.
FOMOCO466 will probably see some more business shortly....
Thanks again for the suggestion.

I have to agree with Wxmcpo. If you can score the Harley Grille for real cheap go for it. You already have the Roush grille and it looks good. I tried my roush grille with a chrome surround and then I painted the surround black. It looked much better.

I like the look of the current one more then the Harley grille. Mainly because of the amount of bars in the current grille. The Harley just looks sorta plain.

With your headlamps already blacked out all I would do is paint the surround to match the truck.

Ouch! Sorry about that Black Lariat. I can feel your pain, the few times I've shipped items to Canada it's a real mess trying to figure out shipping via UPS. Had a similar instance shipping to Mexico - sent some friends a few t-shirts and some magazines as a gift. When the package arrived UPS/Mexico wanted $80 as some sort of additional tax/fee. Understandably my friends refused to pay so that left me the option to pay or have the package sent back - but that was going to cost even more! What a racket!

I visited Canada last summer - St. Jean - and hoped to return this summer but its not in the economic cards. Beautiful country though.

Good luck, either way you go it's still a good looking truck.

If your going black, I like the FX2 grille. I am debating on swapping out my FX4 grille for the FX2 version.
