Hi Folks,
I know this isn't necessarily a TDI related inquiry but I know there are a lot more resourceful minds here.
I had a small 'fender bender' this morning and slid my front end into a Dakota's (Dodge) bumper. At quick glance it looks like I buckled the hood a bit and cracked the grille pretty bad. I am at work so I don't have the luxury of doing a thorough investigation right now.
eBay has a lot of "euro" style grilles (sans center VW medallion) but I would prefer to find a factory grille. I've scoured craigslist and I have yet to check the classifieds on this site but in the meantime does anyone have a vendor the can recommend for an aftermarket replacement factory looking grille (with a badge)? Does anyone have experience with the cheapy eBay parts? I mean they have a $45 grille with free shipping. That's for a brand new part (albeit "euro" style aftermarket). The junk yards wants more than that!
Thanks.
