Need a grille

Spring is here - and the truck is nice and clean. Unfortunately the grille looks like ----- well nasty is the best word. Cracked in two places and the emblem is starting to peel. Not a clue as to why as the winter wasn't bad and the truck seldom driven. This brings me to my question - is there a decent replacement available? Most that I've seen as well as advertised seem to be just add ons to the OEM. What I'm looking for is one that removes the original and replaces it with a nice stainless or aluminum version.

Might be fine except I already have an OEM (broken!!)plastic grille on my truck and as my post said that I'm looking for SS or polished aluminum. The Ebay description says that it's ABS;

Summit lists at least 10 different manufacturers for a grille for my truck - I just don't like spending my bucks on junk and am asking for positive recommendations from folks that have experience with a brand

Thanks for your response
