Hey guys a while back some custom parts manufacturer in China started selling custom peterbilt grills with a black Pete emblem on ebay, and it was discussed here. I think some one on here may have even bought one. Well now the same guy just released a custom Pete style grill to replicate optimus prime from the new transformer movies complete with 359 style duel round headlights and custom turn signals attached to the grill. Check it out, its a little pricey but still a cool new product for our hobby. Especially for the guys doing optimus prime builds right now.

Yup, got the breathers too :D

But not bumper. Already have my bumper done, and his is incorrect. His has a curved rear, but the reference pic he shows isnt of the movie truck, its of one someone has made to look like it.

Of course now i have a grille from Brian all polished up and left over. Guess i'll have to buy another truck to bolt it on to!

Not sure i can justify the bumper. I havent added the stalks to mine yet, but theyd be the only reason i'd consider it.

But i swear hes making stuff just for us!
