    There is a pretty soft demand for them verses supply. Its the one body part that there are plenty of available from people doing just as you have and changing to a challenge grill.
    Lots of people are going to tell you to just keep it with the car so it can be put back to original in the future if a future owner or yourself wants to. I tend to agree just because selling one is more trouble than it's really worth.

    Yea i have seen them sit unsold for $300

    Mine is in storage figure why bother just keep it with the car. As I can sell it without it with the challenge grill or put the orig back on and sell my challenge grill in one day.

    Mine sits in pile of other obsolete and useless parts...En bon vieux Queb Pierre... Ca vaut dla marde. Lol

    No for real though, I would keep it and when/if you sell your car just swap it back and sell the challenge grill. You'll most likely recover a good part of the money you spent on your challenge grill this way. That's what I would do.

    You can't get $500 for that. Try giving it away.

    I really like the look of the challenge grill on the Rosso Corsa. One of the best changes I have made to mine as well. My spare is hanging on the wall, resting quietly.

    Just keep it for its originality. Not worth selling it.

    They sell all day @ $100-150

    Most folks just hang them on a wall as they add more value to your car when you sell it

    Usually cheap, as mentioned $300 or less.
    I am always tempted to buy one, get out my drill and a can of black spray paint and ......
    Oh never mind.

    It has been done, with mixed* results.

    * - I'm being polite to those who have done it :)
