already tried cudagrille

PPR : they have a very bad feedback on the net and lots of people filed complains against them.
I ordered a grille from them, they charged me and told me several times that the grille was shipped but was never shipped.

There was a thread on Moparts started by Mike from B&E to gauge the interest in a properly re-produced 71 grille.  You may want to contact B&E to see if a decision has been made and a possible time frame.

when do you need it by?  I have one thats never been on a car before, and it's been around before i started working for the shop about 2 years ago.  I've been told it's an nos grill, but i dont believe it is.  Is there a way of telling?  So far the plan is to not use it, except for mocking up,,,we are planning on having an aluminum grill machined,,,but as of now, thats just a plan.  So if there is no hurry, I might have one for you! (my guess is 3ish months)

here is the answer from Glenn
<<Hi Lilian, the prices you have there are for restoration of your core grill. I believe no one yet has a decent reproduction part available.
Thanks,

im going to work today, and i should remember to take a few pictures of it.  So either later tonight or tomorrow i should be able to post them on here.  so, if no one re-pops them, maybe it is an nos grill?  is there a way of telling, if there are any markings or something like that?
