I want to replace a front grille of Honda Civic 2014 EX Sedan (4 doors).

I've been suggested to buy it from this auto part dealer RockAuto which has a great catalog.

I found the part in "CAPA" and "Economy line" in stock. I would really like to buy an OEM but they don't have it and other websites including ebay sell the OEM for 300$. So expensive. So, I'm pretty close to buy the grille in the CAPA version, but how close/far it is from the OEM version?

Does anyone have a feedback of this kind of quality levels? Real pros and cons. Suggestions?

This is part number 71121 TR3 A010 M1, just in case.

Thanks in advance.

As long as the part you are buying is CAPA Certified, you can be guaranteed it will have the same level of fit and finish as an OEM part.

Certified Auto Parts Association (CAPA) is an independent testing organization which does just that for vehicle parts. As long as it is certified, you are guaranteed the part will work just like the original. All you have to do is look for the CAPA seal:
