I believe mine are Chinese knock offs. I bought them used off eBay so can't verify. But I don't think they make OEM chrome ones. You would have to send them out to be chromed.

Yeah I don't know why they are so expensive. I bought 1 mine for like $80, and still had to modify the grill and the badge to get it to fit. Where did you get the $16 one?

Dunno about the dark growler and/or circle around it.
