Just don't make it a huge ricer wing. Something tasteful and sleek looking could be cool.

Yeah I'm definitely with you on that Arrow. Something subtle but eye catching is what we're going for. Not some STI whale fin!!!

I have been keeping this comment in for a while, but I just HAVE to let it out now. The halos would be visible through the Full Length Phantom Grill. If anything, it would make it look MORE evil (esp. in powder coated black), because until they come on, no one would know they are there. Explaination below

Think about it, the grill isn't completely solid, there are obviously spaces between those bars, letting air and light though. Once the lights come on, they would be COMPLETELY visible. I mean... isn't that kind of obvious?

I'm not trying to bash anyone's opinion of the grill, or anything, I'm really not. plus, I can understand completely why some don't like it, but saying the halo's wouldn't be visible through the grill is kind of a bad reason, IMO. Maybe someone could explain into a little more depth what they actually mean, because I might be missing something too, I don't know.

I guess it's just me, but the idea of being able to hide them from visiblity when the arent on it a REALLY cool idea. It's basically the closest thing to Hid-Away light that we can get... even if they arent flip lights, or hidden by covers, its still the same idea, and just as cool not being able to see them until they are on.

I hope no one takes offence from my post, because I'm not trying to offend anyone, seriously. I just wanted to give my opinion about the grill. I honestly like them all.

I say, take the Full Length Phantom Grill, powder coated it black, and get your hands on an RS, just for a while. Turn on the halos and take pix, that way we can see how this would look. You hear me defenderworx?! JK.

Very good job on everything you've done to the Camaro defenderworx

I think they mean you cant see the halos with the lights off. The car has a mean look just with the way the halos look when they arent turned on. With the full grill, it is covering that effect up.

I'd say 21-22" will look best. HRE 997R or Forgeline ST3P get my vote. But it's your money.

I like the ST3P better but we'll just have to wait and see, we still have a lot of stuff to do.

I appreciate your feedback it means a lot to us over here. Hopefully we'll be able to get our hands on a couple different models to try our accessories out on but until then its left up to the people like you to help us out. I can't wait to get a black powder coated Grille on our car and hopefully you can get one on yours as well! Keep it coming guys I should be able to get some more pictures up by tomorrow!

The Grille is not very hard to install or remove at all. You can do it by yourself and after you get it down it shouldn't take make for ten or fifteen minutes tops.

If I'm not mistaken Greg you want the bottom insert to be Chromed outline just as the top is? If so the grill will come like that, in this picture we were in a rush and just didn't have time to put the bottom insert in. But when these Grilles are available for purchase it will include both the upper and lower insert. Price is still TBD they should be available for purchase in a couple of weeks and if you have any questions about them or any of our other products please dint hesitate to contact Brian Lillie at brian@defenderworx.com
