Ah, nothing's wrong with the new ones ... they're actually stylish and subtle. But I want an old one because they're the old ones ... I just associate the old look with the "achievement" of high mileage. I have no explanation for most of the things I think/do.

Not a big deal, as long as I get SOMETHING for my grille eventually!
