Buyer's checklist
What to check before buying a used grille
- Check all clips and mounting tabs — grilles are brittle and tabs snap easily during removal.
- Confirm the trim level matches. Many vehicles have different grille designs for base, sport, and premium trims.
- Look for chrome peeling or pitting on chrome-finish grilles — these can't be economically re-plated.
- If the grille integrates sensors (adaptive cruise, parking sensors), confirm those modules are included and functional.
