Seriously, If I wanted that sort of design for my truck thats what I'd end up doing. Just grab a cheap ebay grille shell so you dont mess up yours, Some 1.5" wide fairly thin steel and some cardboard for templates and you are good to go.

just think.. are ferraris worth $350,000? a loaded vette will run with it for under $100,000... but you pay to be part of THAT club

I think some Asanti grilles and kits cost almost $6,000

and also i dont think its mommy and daddy buying $1,400 grilles... is people like me who own businesses and can take it off thier taxes as a business expense when they mod their company vehicle... while im sure there are a few mom/dad gifts.. the majoirty is bought by young adults with money and custom shops...

It would make no difference if it were $10K - they should pay 'you' for the blatant advertising of their product.

well isnt it the same thing that dodge does? there is 6 dodge logos on the outside of the new rams (4 on wheels and one on the front and tail gate) and the one on the tail gate is HUGE!

there is also ram logos on the gps screen, both front seats, the center console, rear side of center storage and a ram head on the steering wheel. so should dodge pay me for buying thier ram with all the logos? no

so 12 logos on the ram is a little different then RBP putting the star on thier grille.. or that lil RBP icon in the corner.. both can be removed though...

im fine with both companies putting thier logos on the items though.. because i would be a proud owner of both

(edit) there is actually 7 logos on the outside because i forgot the rams head imbedded inside the windshield... so 4 on the wheels, one front, one back and one in the windshield = 7

Doc - I think he is talking about the huge *** one that was in the link posted above for the chevy silverado. It looks like its a foot tall and a foot and a half wide with just the RBP logo... A little excessive...

here it is:
