Grille Going South

Recently I noticed my grille is cracking and coming apart. I have seen a few replacement options online and am wondering if anyone here has had to replace their grille and where the bought the part from.

I have seen them on the following websites:
autopartswarehouse.com
a1autoparts.com
partsgeek.com
amazon
ebay, etc..

They range from $60 all the way up to $700.... $700 for a grille??? are you kidding me? I can buy a bumper replacement for $1,000.

The $60-$110 grilles look almost identical to the stock part, but am leary since they say "Retail $378.65", savings of 65%. Too good to be true?

Anyway, thanks in advance for any and all opinions.

I got mine off of ebay, 3 of them so far actually. The first black one I didn't like on my truck, fit great but didn't like the black look so gave it to a buddy. 2nd one was a chrome one, present for family. Fit very good for the price. 3rd one was another black one that I sprayed my colormatched bedliner on. Fit very well for around $50 shipped.

Looks great, I always like the look of a body color grille. I may have to give that a try some time.
