Previous owner of my 99 had an accident which broke off the clips that held the front grille on and it's held on with zip ties currently. The plastic part of the whatever is behind the headlamp assembly on the passenger side which has the lower mount point for the grill is also broken off (I cannot find a part number for this anywhere), but I think with the other 3 mounts it will be secure enough...

Looking around I'm not loving the options for a replacement grill. Looks like roughly $20 shipped from rockauto for an aftermarket one, and reviews of the cheap ones complain that they don't come with the fasteners (which I need), don't have a logo or a mount for the logo and don't fit very well. Not so hot.

Used OEM ones on eBay seem to be around $40 plus shipping and also likely don't come with fasteners. OEM is about $100.

Anyone used one of the cheapies? Do they work ok? Can I get fasteners somewhere other than paying $20 for them from the dealer? Or are there any other options I'm missing?

honestly your best bet is to visit a jy for the fasteners and then either get the grille from the jy or order one online..

Yeah junkyard is your best friend, you can get whatever you need specifically

I'm in a relatively small town and junkyards are usually hit or miss here. I did a junkyard search online and it only turned up one grille for $50 which doesn't seem like a great deal. I don't know how accurate the online junkyard inventory sites are though...

Another bet could be picking up an OEM grill from ebay. It might run you some cash but they're definitely there.

you can post in the classifieds for one but i doubt you'd find a cheaper price here. Your better off going to a JY
