Emblemless Grill: Ionic vs. eBay

I know the Ionic one is a great piece, but who in here has the emblemless grill from eBay? It comes painted gloss black so its saves me money on paining the Ionic grill.. also its fiberglass vs. abs plastic

which route would you guys go? or have gone?

Ionic .

eBay.

Thanks in advance.

i just bought a mesh grille off ebay. poor fitment. returning it now and already ordered a strafe gialla.

side question- not to hi-jack thread if OP does not mind.

I need to return the ebay grille asap in order to stay within the return policy. Strafe grilles are custom made and will take 2 weeks. what should i do about the gaping hole i will have in my front for the next 2 weeks? Is it okay to drive without a grill assuming i dont hit any birds? or should i custom fit a piece of screening or something across it?
