I never just look at the item pricing on E-bay. It's always the bottom line. People jack up the shipping because E-bay takes there cut out of the item price. Shipping and item price on thisare as good as it gets on E-bay.

come on Foo, you know better than to tease us and not show pics. How much did you spend on the OEM chrome grille?

Sorry for the delay...

Billet bow tie


Escalade lower chrome mirror caps


Billet front bow tie and 07 OEM chrome grille



we have a friend that owns a body shop so we gave him the part numbers and he ordered it through the chevy parts department.

This is all retail price YMMV
Top grille piece: 15944326 $177
Lower grille piece: 15944321 $155

For the Billet Bow Ties: got them on Ebay
Seller name is: bdc280
Front emblem: Listing number 120064817739
Rear emblem: Listing number 120064812012

All were super simple to install.

No that's how you post.. thanks for the pics and details.

That's the first time I've been tempted to go Chrome on the front bowtie. Looks real good Foo.

Your front bowtie is actually the right size. Most are too small. For comparison I'm posting the rear bowtie with the gold/plastic cover removed.I think it may be worth the money to get an aftermarket one...

Foo, here is a link to that seller for the bowtie. I really like it, good find... Can you check out this link for this item and let me know if it is the same as the one you bought.. I bought one from Stylin Concepts, got it and it was small, not OEM size like yours...Let me know if you could if it is the same...Thanks!

Looking at your photo it appears that you removed the entire rear bowtie assembly and put this in it's place. Is that the case? If so, how did you remove the OEM piece?

yup the rear assembly came off too easy if you ask me. the new bow tie we bought is too big to fit inside and my wife liked the look
