Looks like they're another new product from PG Classic. Page 174 of MCG shows them for $475.00 with headlight bucket trim too. It's hard to say what the availability of them is being a new product, kind of pricey too.

moparnut, the item I mentioned was the thin stainless stuff that goes around the headlights and above and below the centre section of the grille. Didn't know you were wondering about the Gran Coupe/AAR grille inserts. Either way both are too high priced for my wallet but in all fairness, do we really know how much it costs to tool up for this stuff.

Tooling costs are definately not cheap and if they are "exact" replicas they may have had to pay Chrysler a royalty. You can bet they cost the company more than 30 bucks, probably more than a hundred.
