Offering up my Satoshi making services. Going to do kind of a custom order thing instead of just making one and putting it up on eBay. I didn't realize how much of a cut eBay likes to take and I would rather make quality grilles that I know are going to sell instead of hoping an auction gets a good turn out.
I'll be doing three colors of grilles.
Flat Black - the grille off the base model trucks
Chrome - everyone's favorite
Primer - sanded properly and generous amounts of adhesion promoter used to ensure a proper bond
As far as mesh goes...all out on professional stuff, it jacks up the price but it's quality material. Take your pick from what's on
customcargrills.com (CCG) and I'll get a hold of it for you. The section you want to look under is universal grill mesh. If you want simple local mesh, I can do that too and save you all that money that would go to CCG.
Emblems are going to have to be on your own. It's just too much hassle to stock up various emblems for people to pick from. Choose what you want at your own leisure/budget and simply attach it to the grille. However, if you already have one you would like attached, send it my way and I'll gladly do that for you.
I took somewhat of a poll on this and some people out there are willing to send in their current grille to get it modded. This makes sense for people that currently have a color matched grille that they like and don't want to have to worry about getting a primed one painted. Sending it in to me will save you a good bit of money since I don't have to spend the cash on obtaining a grille. Ideally I would like to get your grille to me in time for the weekend, knock it out over Fri-Sun and have it back in the mail to you on Monday. I know this will only appeal to a few people but the option exists.
This just something to fund my little mods without dipping into the house budget. Believe me the profit margin here is nothing to quit my day job over. The costs add up quick. A grille runs 100+, CCG mesh 60+, all the other materials, then shipping and the amount of time and work that goes into the modding.
My last eBay grille sold for $280 including shipping, if you add CCG mesh to that then you're looking at around $350. I think my prices are a bit lower than what I can pull on eBay.
Various prices for various options, all prices include shipping and insurance.
Choice of grille and local mesh - $270
Choice of grille and CCG mesh - $330
Your grill sent in, local mesh - $160
Your grill sent in, CCG mesh - $220
Mini grilles modded $20 - if you're not sure what this is, look at the pic of my grille
I would post pictures but...it's custom! Instead I'll post pictures of the 3 that I've done already.
The grille on my truck, done with hexagon mesh from CCG, those little mini grilles are a pain in the ass to do but give a uniform look
The last one I sold, formly chrome but turned into primer
The first grille I did
