What about grille guards?

[Orrin]

I took the grille guard off my 2003 Denali when I bought it. I thought what the heck I can sell it on Craig's List. I had it on there four 5 days and no calls. Then I found this forum (cool place, and no politics, unlike the GL1800Riders forum). I thought, heck I can post it here, then I read the rules. OK, I can abide by them.

So, then I thought I can post it on E-Bay. I have been there a long time and bought and sold a bunch of stuff. I have a 100% perfect rating. I post starting at a $1.00 and no reserve. These things sell for about $1,000. I have had only 2 looks and no bids. It is a nice Onki stainless (you will have to go find it, I won't post a link).

Are these thing no longer desireable? I am going to take it off if it does not do anything and donate it to St. Vincent's if it does not do anything soon. At least I help someone out and get a tax deduction. Maybe it's not worth the shipping?

Some of you have been playing with this stuff for years, I would appreciate your comments. Thanks

No Offense, ............... in my opinion they are ugly. Sorry. I have no use for them and they make the truck unnecessarily heavier.

Jesus, look on the bay. I have pics posted there. Go to auto parts, Onki. Tell me what you think.

Jochen, I guess I feel the same way, that is why I took the grille guard off. Howevere, everyone likes something different. I learned with motorcycles not to knock anyone's rig. It might not be much, but you never know the story till they tell you.

^^You don't have to call me 'Jesus', 'Jae' will suffice. Lol.^^ Be patient. Keep post the ad while dropping the price once a week. Somebody will want it. It might take some time, weeks or months maybe, but someone out there is or will be looking for one. Good luck.

I would rock the right looking grill guard in the winter, not sure about summer.

I think they look really good on some obs trucks.

Is this it? http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=280774461444&index=1&nav=SEARCH&nid=48628394109 if so then it looks alright. Maybe a little bit weird on the yukon but id say its ateast worth 250ish down here in tx but i think it would look better in black

Please accept my apology Orrin, I had no intention of "knocking on your, or anyone else's rig".

Around here, we are pretty blunt and straight forward when anyone asks for an opinion or input, without trying to "knock on anyone's rig".

Again, I did not mean any harm and hope we are cool. SORRY!

And you are correct, EVERYONE is entitled to his/her taste and should be able to do whatever they like, as everyone does have different taste.

If we would ALL like THE SAME, there would only be Vanilla ice cream .

Have a great Saturday.
