JDM S4 Chrome Grills

Guys (and ladies),

The chrome grills will run you about 310 + shipping (a ton more) in USD. Is it really worth it? The USDM 97 grill and the chromed S4 grills are the same, except for the chromed part. My thinking is that why pay that much. I think I can get them chromed locally and shipped for around 250 (+/- 25) chances are + 25 though.

At 275, they are STILL cheaper then the waterfall grill and they will be chromed. What do you think? I do need a group order of at least 5 and I need them to be pre-paid as well.

If I can do everything right, I assume, I can get them shipped out within lets say... 2 weeks from the time of the official group order date?

There is NO way I am going to order a chrome grill from Japan at 310 per grill + shipping. With shipping and Japan Import Services' comission fee, it can run you as much as 400 bucks. Regardless of what anyone tell me, 400 bucks for a piece of plastic is just a WASTE. Instead, you can pay me 350 and I can get you a chrome grill within a week (10 days tops) rather than wait 4 weeks and somewhere in there, I can make a decent profit as well.

As for the picture of the chrome grill, i'll post it in a bit. Just got back from WI.

no no, i wasn't referring to the s4 from japan.... i was referring to if you get 4 other people to get the 'locally chrome grill' i would be the 5th to get it for 275ish... or i'll just be waiting for the small car grill to come out soon....
