Best place to buy pre-painted heritage grille?

Thinking about swapping to an AGM painted heritage grille (from stock grille). Would like to keep the white old school SS's in the front though. Have seen pre painted OEM grilles from GM, but they all come with a bowtie, and from what I understand if you remove the bowtie there are marks on the grille where the bowtie used to be.

First off, is the above true? And if so, any suggestions on best place to get a pre-painted ashen grey heritage grille?

Thanks!

Do a search on eBay for heritage grills. You can find them painted on there for about $315 shipped.

Thanks. Ya I checked there originally, but all the ones I found there had bowties (OEM ones).

Mine came with a bowtie installed that I removed and you could not tell it was ever there.

Interesting, thanks. This was the note I got from the seller on eBay when I asked about removing the bow tie:

"No this cant be removed it will mess up the entire grille. We have had customers try to remove this item and it hasn't worked out so we do not recommend trying to remove it."

+2 for Rodgers Chevrolet. My own came from there and my fiancé's. Both came pre-painted and his with the bow tie off. Excellent customer service.

PM'd Maureen. Rogers will remove the factory bowtie before shipping, and will inspect prior to sending out to make sure there are no marks / blemishes. Seems like the best option so far!

Thanks for the tips everyone.
