Default WTB Firebird RAM AIR GRILLS
Does anyone know where I can find some? The guy that painted my car lost them and we searched and couldn't find vendors that sell them. It's for the LT1 Ram Air Hood.

Thanks!

Thanks!
I think I have about 10 of those left overs from when I worked at W2W years ago. Send me a pic and I can make sure... Give me some measurements too.
These are new GM parts.

if you never found these, go look at hawks. i got my grills there for $50 shipped when i bought my hood in january 2008. My hood was a never used OEM so i know these aftermarket grills work in an oem hood and i was comparing them with someone who owned a real 96-97 WS6 at the T/A nats and we couldn't tell the difference between hsi real ones ($95 per side at GM) and my aftermarket ones.

figured they would that is the best deal out there for LT1 grills by far!

even GM parts direct has them for $72 each but by the time you pay for the shipping they are right back to $95 each

Yeah I noticed that GM Parts Direct lately has not had any good deals. They wanted to charge me $15 for shipping for some replacement lug nut covers. Yeah RIGHT like I'm gonna pay for that.

Just be glad you don't have the Firehawk Ram Air hood on your car. I bought one of those for a car without the grills and it took me months of scouring the internet for them.

true.

i got my hood in january of 08 for a very good price (little over $300 for an oem hood unpainted never installed) and then went searching for the grills. i was lucky enough to stumble on hawks and find those aftermarket grills for $40 + shipping and they worked great.

Yeah it was a good save. I looked EVERYWHERE after my painter lost mine and had no luck. I gave up for a while and then just decided to post on here and now I have the grills.
I wasn't sure and didn't get my hopes up but I'm glad they worked. Yeah mines not a firehawk hood either, OEM hood.
