Default Need Help Finding New Grill Insert

Ok guys. I have been looking all over trying to find a replacement honey comb grill after hitting that damn buzzard yesterday.

I would really like to have a factory insert but I will go grillcraft if I have no other options.

Grillcraft for the win all day everyday. I removed the "grillecraft" emblem in the bottom corner but love it

it might be worth it to buy this to just use the insert after painting it black

Right, I don't think you'll find a black one.

I know I probably wont find a black one and im not worried about paint but if I could find just an insert I would be really happy.

I love the grillcraft inserts but if I messed one of them up I would be really pissed at myself.

Thanks for the options so far guys.

Just throw what you don't need in the garbage or sell it. The insert snaps out. IF you do find just the insert, you'll be lucky if it's that cheap.

Have you tried searching for one ? Ebay might be your best shot.

Lol not at all. I looked but had to climb up on a roof to tear it off so I was hoping someone had a line on one.

Yall think paint and primer would be the best if I go stock or steel wool and krylon fusion?
