Does anybody else besides sparks restoration make these.Hard to believe at those prices,somebody else hasn't jumped on board and dropped the price to make some money.

No. It has take month's of hoop jumping by Sparks to get this done. They are WELL worth the money. You cannot find a better vendor to deal with. I love my front and back ones. Sparks is the ONLY vendor authorized by GM to make these.

Yeah, I understand. It's just I have been hounding GM and vendors for 2 years to get this done and it finally happened. My car looks so darn perfect with these on. I know competition brings down cost, but there is none and these are high quality machined metal. Nothing plastic. If you can, try to see these installed in person. Pictures do not do them justice. Oh, and they can make them in ANY color you want.

Yea,I am probably gonna get the red ones.They look good on your car and I see you stuck with the stock grille like I am doing,also.The only other thing that sucks about the price is the emblem,being known as pricey,would be a target for theft...

I agree I got mine in about 2 weeks ago and they look even better then the ones you get on the car. Their customer service was great to deal with and let me know when they were getting shipped out. Yes the prices are alittle high but your paying for quality billet aluminum and paint. You won't be disappointed.

I see the Satin black with gloss black but I don't see a Polished with gloss black. I would like the polished with black. They kind of look little. How big are they? I couldn't find the measurements on the site. Or I am just overlooking it............

I'm not sure of the sizes, but if you email Terry he will give you all that info. Take my word for it. They are PERFECT in size.

I love my rear emblem from sparks. Great quality. I have a bowtie delete in front and I may buy the fron SS soon. I just don't want to have to remove my bumper to bolt on the front emblem.

You do not remove the bumper to install the front SS emblem. I intalled mine in less than 10 minutes. Very easy.
