Phantom Grille VS Heritage grille, pro's cons - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

racer778 · 04-07-2010, 12:07 PM

If you look at my avatar I have a phantom Grille, I am debating whether I need to keep it or ditch it for a hereitage grille. Suggestions please? I like the grille but, I have been pulled over by the SM police because he stated: "it is covering the headlights" (did not ticket me). take a look tell me what you think. I will be adding Carbon fiber GFX and carbon fiber trunk as well. As you can see already have a carbon fiber hood

i think you just answered your own question.
personally that would be my second choice, as i love the heritage grill.
i think it all gets down to what you like the best.

Domic · 04-07-2010, 12:23 PM

What's the pice?

Michael_Js · 04-07-2010, 01:24 PM

Well, like it was stated, sounds like you are setting yourself up for a "real" ticket wth the Phantom Grille. I'd go for the Heritage, since it's very cool, and avoid the probable ticket.

LWM · 04-07-2010, 09:06 PM

When you opt for the new grill...............will you sell you stock grill?

Thanks

I like your phantom grille, but is it worth getting pulled over & (possibly) ticketed for?? Also how can you clean your headliights??

racer778 · 04-08-2010, 01:11 AM

keep it coming, yes it is the Seibon hood, purchased here in cali. circuit motorsports will give you a great deal

SNV · 04-08-2010, 01:22 AM

I like the look you have. Just comes down to how deep your pockets are. If the cost of the tickets won't break you keep it

I would be interested in buying ur phantom grille if u decide to switch!

GreenMonster · 04-16-2010, 10:38 AM

same here u already got me message earlier please let me now

Berean · 04-16-2010, 10:53 AM

Keep it. Looks good on your car.

FC_GIBB · 04-16-2010, 11:04 AM

it looks sweet, how does it look when the headlights are on? does it noticibly change your visibility?... sweet hood too!

rolnslo · 04-16-2010, 11:19 AM

I was talking with another member on here that has the phantom grill on his SS. Besides the possible ticket, another downside is that you can't clean the bugs and dirt/dust off your headlights without pulling the grill off.

I really like gotpball44's grille from http://www.aftermarketanarchy.com

That is sweet! 1st time I've seen that one.

Angrybird 12 · 04-16-2010, 02:18 PM

is there a way to modify the phantom grill to expose the headlights? What about the turn signals? do they also have to be uncovered?

Well I have a preference, I would go for the heritage grill...no surprise there huh...

I love my grill. Got it a week after i got the car. No tickets for it yet, just speeding.

ZuluKilla8 · 04-19-2010, 08:16 AM

How much do those phantom grille run?

Mickalo · 04-19-2010, 05:47 PM

What happened to your Vent that comes on the front the SS??( The one between hood and upper grill)

Ferrarimk13 · 04-19-2010, 06:22 PM

i dont like this grill at all, so id say go with the heritage grill. ps- i love your hood!!

Taz_FL · 04-20-2010, 08:28 PM

I don't care for the heritage grille, think the stock looks better then it does. However, I LOVE the phantom grille, had one on my lowered Astro van that i use to have. I say keep the phantom grille, looks MUCH better then the heritage

Brownhornitt · 04-21-2010, 01:18 AM

That is sooooo sick... I don't like getting pulled over, but if I did, I would so rock that grill. That is dope.

Jim Thompson · 04-21-2010, 08:00 AM

pulled over or not, that grill and hood makes the cyber gray beast reach out and grab you!
