Crown replacement grille quality?

[scguy]

I need a 10 slot grille for my MJ. Haven't been able to find a non broken one in a yard, anyone bought a Crown 55000153?

 

Any experience with the quality? Or is anyone looking to sell a 10 slot?

Ehhhh the quality is ok. It’s not the best but it’s better than their headlamp bezels they offer.

That is the same AMC part number for the grille, right? So maybe its an NOS grille?

Crown, for the most part, uses the OEM part numbers for their parts.

Why do you need a 10-slot grille? A 1989 should have an 8-slot.

Same reason hot dog buns come with 8 buns and hot dogs has 10.

Because 10 slots are cooler.

A 89 should have a Renix fuel system too. I just like the look of a 10 slot better

I have no argument with that. But that means you don't "need" a ten-slot grille, you "want" a ten-slot grille.

Can't say you're wrong, but if us Jeep owners start differentiating between needs and wants, we won't have near as much fun ordering parts.
