I don't think that's a fair comment.

So if I don't like that Heritage grill and spend the bucks on it that means I am not an enthusiast? That is kind of a lame statement isnt it?
I think it takes a bit more then a 200 dollar grill to prove who is what....

but hey I think an enthusiast would of ordered their camaro a LONG time ago.... like.. back in October 2008..... I think that makes me an enthusiast... with or without the grill.......

Wow, a bit defensive aren't we?

I didn't mean to offend, I honestly didn't think anyone would take my comment so seriously.

Hows this then ..

I personally think the stock grill on the 2010 Camaro looks awkward and is in no way reminiscent of the car's "heritage". I think most enthusiasts would do SOMETHING with that grill, whether that means replacing it with the GMPP Heritage grill, or another aftermarket grill like the billet ones that defenderworkx is producing, or even something else down the line. There are alternatives, don't get me wrong!

I was suggesting that people who don't care about the cars lineage would likely do something a bit less tasteful.

I just don't think that big black plastic rectangles look good on the front of this beautiful car. Especially when GM offers an alternative that is far more fitting.

Also, to your comment about ordering in October .. I really don't see the relevance. I'm sure there are plenty of people who didn't order in October who love the Camaro just as much as you do. Maybe there was a reason they didn't (or couldn't).

That is just my opinion. If you like the look of the stock grill then you're entitled to your opinion as well.

its all good.....by me stating the October order date I was just trying to show you that the term "enthusiast can mean many different things.... I love my Camaro, and plan to do some mods to her as I desire........

Me defensive? maybe, but I was just trying to counteract your point...
