That looks great.

What did you do about the SS emblem on the driver side of the grille? Can you take a shot of where it used to be?

I removed it. There is no easy way to remove it. i searched the internet and came up with BS about pinching tabs together. When i tried it, I couldn't get my arm in far enough (I don't have the arm of a skinny 15 year old kid

). So I decided to see what would happen if I just pushed straight back on the rear bracket peice with a flat head screw driver. That worked, it just popped out. There are no scratches or anything so I am happy.

Anyway:

Not sure if I like the way it will look.....

If you use these on the back then I would think it would go where the bowtie is.
Too larger to put where stock SS emblems are.

It looks good Tim. I would skip the SS on the rear, but that's just me. If you like it go for it.

I like the change in the front.

Darsh 007 · 01-04-2010, 12:14 PM

Love it. Nice classic feel.

PAUL SS · 01-04-2010, 12:48 PM

Now that you have the front SS grill emblem off, does it help you understand a better way to remove it?

Blackhawk6 · 01-04-2010, 12:54 PM

Tim Looks Great....

volboy23 · 01-04-2010, 01:16 PM

Looks good Tim. I think BackinBlack is right, if you want to add that SS on the back then I would replace the bow tie.

CruznSS · 01-04-2010, 02:28 PM

Looks good Tim! I concur with the others for back. Replace the back Bowtie. Hope to get exhaust on mine next week (GM Performance - good price) and my xmas gift was a cai kit. Its backordered but hope to have it soon! Calling for the white stuff again friday.
