I think it looks ok, need better pics of wheels further back. Definitely don't like the badge in the center.

TJ91 · 08-06-2009, 05:03 PM

looks good, what are the wheel dimensions

10ssCamaro · 08-06-2009, 05:15 PM

wheels look really good, dont like the grill though :-(

bolteon593 · 08-06-2009, 05:40 PM

whats with the lens flare?

Mahlhavoc · 08-06-2009, 05:47 PM

Lens flare = too much time on my hands + photoshop = wierd crap

Wheels are 22 x 9.5 if I remember correctly. The grill is actually pretty cool and not 'as' see through as what is shown, a bit darker looking at it.

$895 for a grille is ridiculous!

But to a Major League player... like droping $.05 for a stick of gum

ZNOLMT · 08-06-2009, 06:32 PM

The grill looks nice, though not my style. Could do without the badge in the middle too

It aint trickin' if ya got it

I tried my best to custom my ride and the people on this site ripped it apart. If it aint factory it aint cool according to these people. Five bucks half of them don't even own one, let alone old enough to drive or to old to drive.

Well you do have alot of folks on here who speak their mind about anything that is modded...but it's your car..do what you want to do with it..who cares what others think..my motto is.."If you aint paying who cares what you are saying"

NightmareSS · 08-06-2009, 06:46 PM

looks good i just think its stupid to put the lexani emblem there...maybe if it was in the bottom right corner or something but in the middle it looks like its taking credit for the car...idk just seems wrong

if you installed a caddy grill on it with the crest in the middle that would look stupid, no?

I dunno man, if that is your orange with the body kit painted, you get my vote... love that stuff!!

Yeah, the emblem is over the top and I could do without it and would if it was mine... but I am one of the "Can't afford one" group. So I will look and pass judgement like an angry Catholic school nun!!

wheels

grille:(

Chocolate Apocalypse · 08-06-2009, 06:52 PM

Hmm, I think you could take screen door mesh and make your own grille....save some $$!
Rims look pretty good, I'd go wider in the back though.

I would put some form of "SS" on it and remove the lexani emblem

IMO, I think I like that style of grill better than factory. I'm not a fan of the sky high price, but looks wise, just put an SS or RS in the grill, and it would look perfect.

Anyway to get better angles? Like, straight front shot, and a closer look at the wheels, along with a closer look at the grill?

Lessk · 08-06-2009, 09:00 PM

Looks to me like they made a 4x4 with that wheel gap.

Andro · 08-07-2009, 10:05 AM

Not feeling it at all

Right... If you are willing to put your baby on the “WORLD WIDE WEB” for thousands of people to critique you have to have some thick skin; not everyone is going to like what you like…

EKG · 08-09-2009, 03:40 AM

I like it a lot. But yeah, don't like the badge in the middle of the grill. If you just put the bowtie there...100000 times better...but chea man I really like this.

!!!TED!!! · 08-09-2009, 08:06 AM

The wheels are cool, but I will agree with others that the badge in the middle of the grille looks wrong.

Im one of those stock/purist types. If you are going to alter factory, at least make it look like something the factory would have done (IE tastefull...or at least heritage inspired).
But then, everyone has their own personal taste/style. Do what you want people lol.
Just know that, in the end (years from now), the unmolested examples of cars fetch the biggest bucks!

BigD36 · 11-17-2010, 08:14 PM

where did you order the grill from, im looking at this one or a strut grill.
