Here's a pic of my old Camaro with chrome inserts but with the grille, can't seem to find my other pics with the grille off.

Idk, I just bought them on ebay for like 5 bucks lol.

Ls1CamaroGuy87, thats looks dope.

Random question, sorry: You guys know how to take out the the license plate thing from my original grille? Want to sport the Camaro insert look before getting the SS grille.

Yeah you just basically rip it off have done it on both of my camaros takes 5 minutes.. there is like 6 or 7 plastic tabs that hold the whole grille on and just start pulling it off from either side.. dont be scared

Ima be scared as HELL lol. I'm not gonna have holes or anything showing, am I?

On my old Camaro when I took off the whole grille to put the billet grille, all I did was rip it off. But never messed with the license plate thing, looks real attached to the og grille, ima stop being a bitch, ima try it when I get home.

Noooooo I'm not talking about the look like your sig nasteeZ, I had that look already. I want the original black grille that came with the car just without the license plate housing. The one just like Ls1CamaroGuy87, just without the color of course lol.

But then again, I wouldn't mind going back to the one like yours nasteeZ, but when I did that on my old camaro it seemed like the paint inside was all peeling off, it was weird, so it was basically all sloppy and poor looking (on mine).

you can always put it back on mine is a little scratched up on the bottom but you can barely see it.. i plan on leaving it naked untill i can A) afford the slp bowtie grill and paint it or B) afford to get the gaps in the bumper filled in and repaint the whole bumper i think it looks amazing when it is filled in and smoothed out
