That's not billet aluminum. It's just a chrome steel tube grill. Nothing special. Sure not worth what it's going for. And 22 bucks shipping. Give me a break.

Yeah, I like how these people phrase things to get potential buyers. Using the word billet will get looks. Unsuspecting folks wouldn't know any better. If, and I mean if, he had it rechromed, it was because it was rusty you know. More than likely just bought the thing and didn't like the way it looked. Now he's trying to pawn it off on someone else.

He says, "I had it rechromed and now I am happy, and so will you." Ha! If he was happy with it, he wouldn't be selling it.

I took my "billet" tube grille out to the desert and shot it, it wasnt even worth shipping......... yes I picked up the mess. I brought out a few 55 gallon drums and placed them just off the dirt road. I put all my trash in there every time we go out, when its full Ill remove it and throw the trash away.

Tube grille. It's in my 1980 Indy Hauler so probably wouldn't fit your truck anyhow. I was planning on putting it in my next load to the scrap metal place...
