GMMG is in my future as well,,, however it is much further away than I want.. so I'm going with the LM to hold me over till I can get a GMMG!

Thanks Ben!!

Well, since I didn't have any vinyl and I still had some satin black from my Berger panel.. I just painted it. I'll get a new picture up in the morning

LOL can do, I was too lazy to pull it out of the garage :p

dmginc · 06-28-2011, 01:45 PM

and you need to dry your car better...water spots are bad!

LS1-Z28 · 06-28-2011, 01:47 PM

Did you do the "yank" method when pulling out the stock grille?? Cause I'm thinking of doing that and seeing how much it would cost to fill in the holes where the tabs are? Cause I'm starting not to like the way the billet one looks?

Maybe it's because I don't have anything on the grille

I think I am going to do that, and see if I like it better, if not go back to the grille. How did you mount yours on? Mine you had to drill screws into the old grille...

I think I'm going to try taking it off and everything..

Yeah, mine popped out easy, you could always try putting an emblem on it.. like Revo's

(just to give you an idea of the chrome grille w/ emblem(and because I love to show off Revo's car as much as he does

))

mine was the same.. I had to drill 4 holes ( and 2 big ass ones where the back of my emblem was

)
