    Another truck backed into me and damaged the nose of my truck. The truck is from a small fleet so I'm trying not to hit him too hard on the pocket. I need a grill and bumper centerpiece. Volvo wants $900 for both but I found them on eBay for about $375 for both. Has anybody here used aftermarket parts and is there a noticeable difference between the two?

    My truck is at the body shop now, the grille seemed to be fine I think time will tell, the center chrome piece I replaced with stainless steel hoping it will last linger than the plastic chrome , I pick it up later today I will try to post pictures later

    I've got an aftermarket grill . About 1 year from installation looking from up close it looked like it was sandblasted . From 10 ft it looked fine
