I believe mine came from the same place but I have chrome. No issues since last November.

I bought a set of hd lights off ebay from lights depot I believe 150 for the set and they are still in perfect shape three years later

My headlights are oem and they were not 500 bucks. They were 3 something shipped.

1A Auto sells the grille and headlights as a "kit" I guess you could call it. Header panel from the dealer, and bumper from the classifieds or CL.

My entire 05' front end is from certifit auto and has at least 5 years on it with no problems, or fitment issues. The headlights are ebay eagle eyes and same deal with them, no problems so far. Hell of a lot cheaper than OEM and you wouldn't know it wasn't by looking at it.

When I did mine I just had my buddies body shop order everything, traded my stock stuff and only had to pay a little bit out of pocket

I would go with certifit also, just wouldn't go with any kit from eBay.

I wound up finding pigtails for the 07 just spliced them in. Only problem I had was the new bumper brackets are different from the old ones so I had to order them today for Tuesday or wednesday!
