Chrome Hood Scoop Grille? I've got a 2002 Camaro SS 35th anniversary limited edition. pic of car I was thinking about getting the chrome hood scoop grille from Afterthoughts Auto. Should I go with the chrome or stick with the stock black grille?

Re: Chrome Hood Scoop Grille? My personal opinion would be to stick with stock black grill. I only like chrome if its gonna be on the wheels like chrome SS wheels or Chrome Zo6 wheels. Just my .02.

Re: Chrome Hood Scoop Grille? I really liked the looks of the chrome scoop on a SS I once owned, I'm having problems posting pictures so I'll e-mail you a picture showing what it looks like on a red SS ( it's not the best picture but you'll get the idea ).

You don't show an e-mail address so I guess I can't send you a picture.

Re: Chrome Hood Scoop Grille? I think it compliments my car very nice. I went for the whole clean front end look. <img src="http://home.attbi.com/~swandogg2/PA120040.JPG" alt=" - " />

Re: Chrome Hood Scoop Grille? I did it.. really brings out the lines of the scoop, in my opinion.
I too have an LE... with a billet antenna. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: Chrome Hood Scoop Grille? the problem with the afterthoughts auto grilles (and they even warn you on the website) is that they are prone it chipping and peeling from driving. i heard someone removing the grille itself and attaching some mesh from home depot from behind and taping it. look really sweet. im considering doing that.

Re: Chrome Hood Scoop Grille? Does anyone know who makes the chrome grill for the Ultra Z hood. Saw an ad on it awhile back, but hadn't seen the ad since. Emailed afterthought & they don't make them yet? Was wondering what one would look like w/it. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
