Default New Grill

Yes another 5.99$ grill goes on.

It took all of about 10 minutes. Sorry these pics really suck because it was pitch black out. Ill get some when its sunny out and the flash wont light up everthing BEHIND the grill!

I'm glad to see you were finally able to find some door edge molding. Is that the chrome or the black painted silver?

The chrome is a nice contrast with your Brickyard. I think the chrome molding looks better on darker colors and the painted silver molding looks better on my silver Z.

Wadd, your chrome grill looks outstanding on the Brickyard. HINT: I had to hot glue the ends to keep them from loosening at high speeds. I Think I'll keep the vertical inplace just to be different.

I'm going to get the entire grille color-matched with the bumper. The body shop did a bad job refinishing the bumper the first time around so it's under warranty.
Anyone with photoshop expertise willing to help out? I'd love to see what the final product would look like.

OK...I'm a little slow (at least that's what my mother told me as I was growing up) After reading the above posts three or so times (because I'm tired of being called an idiot and always having to ride on that damn short yellow bus) I've concluded you all are just using door edge guard material and gluing it to the stock grill? That simple? How do the verticle slats come out if you don't want them? Do they remove easily, or do you need to cut them out somehow?

Thanks (looking for my box of chocolates)

Default Where Do I get one of those grilles?

Do I buy it somewhere or do I have to make it like I made my license plate that would go great with my chrome 20s & my chrome license plate?

so cazz, where does your license plate go now? and why do you still have the dealer plate on the front? you should put your "personalized" bling thing on the front and put a plate on the rear.
