Default lx-mode grill?

Wondering if i should pull the trigger. I really dont want to spend $522.31..thats just ridiculous.

I bought it. I had a conversation through email with one of the representatives, trying to lower the cost. He says it is an authentic lx mode grille, but who knows. I dont care cause it fits perfect and looks the exact same. You really cant tell whether its real or not. They are very friendly and ship their items very fast.

I painted mine black, heres a pic

I read in a thread that there is no stamp on the authentic grille (no way of telling if one is authentic or not) so i didnt bother checking. Its now painted and installed. Plus im at college right now so my cars not close by
