    Man that new grill and headlight buckets looks great. I've been on Roseville's site at least 6 times now looking at it! I was telling my local Mopar buddy about it and he is absolutely NO help, he keeps egging me on to buy it.
    Must...... resist.......  :pullinghair:   :hyper:

    Hi Brad.
    My previous grille was in decent shape, but I don't think I could get it as nice as I would have liked and the $$ to restore it was more than I wanted to spend
    The new grill is from dynocorn and got it thru Dave at Roseville.
    The only issue I had was that dynocorn does a poor job packaging the grill and one end of the grill was folded over on it self due to shipping and the fact they don't secure it well in the box. Dave was awesome as usual and sent me another. ( I ended up picking it up so I could check it )
    The guy that painted my car painted the grill and re sprayed the headlight surrounds at the same time to get everything to match.
    I wanted the grill to look nice since the body and paint is all new.
    The fit for the grill was good.
    I can keep my old grill as a spare or might sell it at some point.
    Good luck. Would love to get the car to Carlisle someday.
    Your car looks great. Is your grill weathered that you want to replace it ? Looks good in the pictures.

    Doug.
