So I am going to get the Sparks SS emblems eventually, but I need help deciding on getting the heritage grille as well. If I do get a heritage grille it will be painted satin black.

These are all Photoshops...

Option 1: stock grill with the sparks SS emblem (assuming they are still going to be releasing one for the stock grille)

Option 2: heritage grille, in satin black, with the sparks SS emblem

And this is what the rear will look like

Opinions please...

I like the heritage grill, but in body color. The contoured edges and whatnot make it look like it just should be the color of the car. Even w/ my black SS, when I get the heritage grill this spring (hopefully) it'll be body color.
If you want to keep the satin black look across the front, I'd stick with the stock grill.

Edit: And if you want to photoshop a black w/ cgm rally stripes w/ a black heritage grill with the sparks emblem, in both red and again with cgm lettering, I'd be grateful!

imo, totally heritage grill here... I usually don't always go with the heritage grill, but in your concepts, the heritage grill looks awesome. Imo, you don't even the that SS badge lol. Your car is pretty sweet. The rear looks great too!

I do not like the heritage grille painted body color, it makes the front look less aggressive IMO. Obviously on a black or CGM car, color matched looks good... but I just do not like it color matched on the rest of the colors.

I know I used to not like the heritage grille either, but now I really like it.

Heritage grill

TaylorRyanSS · 03-06-2011, 03:32 PM

So it looks like the heritage grille so far... I am really on the fence. I like the way they both look! The stock grille looks more aggressive but the heritage grille make the front end look cleaner.

I was in the air with both of these as well but then I saw the billet phantom replacment grille in person and I am going with that one. I would say the heritage looks clean, but like the aggresivness of the stock grille with the SS emblem.

Stock grill.

But if u do the heritage grill Satan black like you stated, that's cool too. Painting the grill body color just comes off as a cheap paint job by a shop too lazy to mask off the grill. This is what most will think as on pretty much any car the grill isn't body color. It's an accent piece so it should be a different color (black). And it matches the theme you got going already, rear blackouts, splitter all black.

Your car looks good. All your mods are pretty much the same ones I'm doing. Makes the car look more aggressive but not over done and still clean looking.

TaylorRyanSS · 03-06-2011, 06:20 PM

Well I wont be getting it for a while, and I do not even know if Sparks is making one for the stock grille for sure. I am leaning towards the heritage grille, but then when I see it on the stock grille it looks so good too.

Thanks for the replies.
