this is true for the 8's for us 6ers the bottom grill is different

This is the first I've taken a hard look at both of them, I agree that the Heritage appears more refined and symmetric. The egg-crate is more like the 60s-early 70s grille though, which is probably the point.

But as the key to beauty is symmetry, I think I might go Heritage if the removal/installation isn't too tough for my ham hands.

I dumped the egg crate because IMO it looks like it belongs on a truck. That kind of styling is best left to Dodge.

Howd you mount the bowtie? I have that grill but my car is all black with the dark gray(almost un-seeable) stripes and I thought that would be an easy way to break it up.

I like the heritage grill a lot. would like to get one eventually.

Either use double sided 3M auto tape or get a couple of extra clips that they use to hold the grill to the front facia. Welcome to the heritage grill club,once you install it,you'll never go back to that cow catcher!

Funny, that's why I went the heritage route.

We should take a poll to see which grill looks better.

I think both take inspiration from the '69 Camaro.
The egg crate grill borrows from the non-RS Camaro's while the Heritage Grill borrows from the RS's grill, which was different to accommodate for the hideaway headlights (and consequently, the different front fenders, which have places to bolt the headlights to).

Excellent comparison!
