Dammit! Why your car?! It's one of the few cars I liked with GFX and that was a 'vert.

I hope you're alright. What happened?

They look terrible on LT1s as well. Billet Grills in general are ugly to me.


Looks like you got a little friendly with a pole of some sort from that entry wound.

like tbird31 said the car is totalled and on top of that they didn't give me much money for it so i have decided it is better to just use the money to buy another one. As for what happened lets just say having well over 400rwhp and bald tires dont mix. Here is the thread i originally posted about it

https://ls1tech.com/forums/convertib...ites-dust.html

and on a side note i will never put a billet grille on my ride well maybe a black one
