02/03 grill that I found on ebay

Since I am going to get a 02/03 bumper for my 00 Max. I am looking for a grill on ebay. I have checked the dealer the cost of a brand new grill is $198. This one I found on ebay looks in pretty good condition.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=020&sspagename=STRK%3AME SE%3AIT&viewitem=&item=300191927162&rd=1

What I concern is, is it really a oem grill. I don't want to get a custom grill.
What do you guys think???

no kidding, $55 to ship a grille is too much, he probably put a handling charge in there of 20-30 bux so in case it does sell for 0.99 then he would still get some money.

I ordered my new 02-03 grill for $100 from the guy who worked at the body shop. Then I had to spend $30+ to buy the Nissan emblem. So for that price, it's pretty cheap (even with shipping lol - he probably just didn't want to pay the eBay fees).

yeah you are right, i saw the same grill on ebay for $100 with no emblem, and only the emblem on ebay will cost around $30. So total $130, thats why I want to get this, but it is too expensive for me to buy a new bumper just for the grill. The pain job is not cheap!! I think i should just leave this for someone.

does anyone know if the emblem on the engine cover will fit in the same place as the emblem for the grill?

its the same size but they are shaped different on the back and the one on the engine cover has two studs and the grill one has tabs.
