Default OEM grill yay or nay

I was thinking of removing the stock grill on the SS. Is it possible to remove it without breaking anything and still be able to put it back if I wanted to? Also, if anyone has a picture of a red SS without the grill that would be great Thanks in advance...

Mine's a Z, but it's the same damn thing. It isn't hard to remove without breaking stuff, but just be careful when pulling it off.

i'm not sure why so many people have a problem with the camaro front grill. these cars looks a hell of a lot better with a grill, regardless of type of grill, than without one. just buy some sort of fill-ins and put them in there if you use the stock grill. i have matching chrome fill-ins on the front and rear, and no one has ever said anything negative about the combo.

Well, I didn't like the holes, but I also didn't like the stock grill. I have the Wings West insert on now, but I'm not happy with that either, so I'm waiting for the SLP grill now. The stock one just looks cheap imo.

Rossi, I will sell it to you for $130 shipped. I've barely even driven the car with it on. Do you do Paypal? If so, paypal it to jackdub@rocketmail.com Thanks

I think the stock grille looks fine. Looks great with the chrome or brushed letters
but I pulled mine off and I'm in the process of filling the holes in right now
I like it either way though
