Default Need a Billet!!

alright, I just got in the mood to buy stuff and went a head and ordered turn signal black outs and short Hockey stripes. At this time i don't have a grill on the car, i took off the black stock one due to it having tons of screw holes from the previous owner. now that i'm adding more black to the car, i need a grill or it'd look out of place to me. from the beginning i've been saying i want to put a black billet with either 1st gen badge like i have on the rest of the car, or a red chevelle bowtie like some others have been running. but i need a grill and i can't afford the 6LE one.. so what should i do. buy this or would it be a waste of money? Thanks

I'm curious about this grill as well. I was thinking about buying it, but like you I wasn't sure what I would be getting.

I imagine its probably the same company with a different name of something, but I bought one of those 50 dollar grills off ebay about 2 years ago. The paint is faded already so if you buy, do yourself a favor and repaint it now rather than waiting till it looks like crap. For $50 bucks I cant complain but it's something to consider

You could take a cheap billet, polish the face, and black out the area behind the grille.

Or a all black billet would look good over the white.

^^No worries, I'm thinking about just taking all the polished for powder coat anyways. I'll tell you what, order a black billet grille "painted" and I'll send you a powdercoated one
