grille suggestions???
grille suggestions??? what grille would go good with my car? the reason i ask is because the one i had on it got ran over by my mom as i was washing the car the other day... 
....so im stuck driving without any sorta grill...and was considering either going back with the same billet grill...or the slp bowtie grille....i have also been considering cuttin holes on the sides and setting up a true ram air system by myself...i have seen others do it...and its not hard at all....any suggestions guys?

THis is not a knock on anyone who has a bowtie grill BUT...The look of the grill doesnt match the price, to me it looks to generic for it to cost that much. At the right price its a step up from the stock cover, but for my tastes the billet grilles add so much to the look of your car.
I would go with the same grill again. I have an identical car. Rims and all. I would suggest that you paint behind the grill flat black before installing the new grill though. I think that sets it off so much more.

thanks for the suggestions guys...yeah i looked into the slp grille, but thats just way too much money for something that aint gonna gimme any performance in the first place....i think im gonna go with the billet grille again....and repaint the front parta the bumper black again...it USED to be black...until i got it replaced after some stupid ignorant driver hit me....now...should i go with red camaro lettering? or what? i have the black/gray/reflective stickers on the back.....also...what kind of paint should i use....would i even need to sand first? or just spray paint it? and if so...what exact kind of spraypaint should i use?

i have a pewter SS too, and if you look at my homepage, i have several shots of it. after rims and paint, it's the most noticeable part of your car with the hood down! but hey, i'm partial to it, and would buy it again. it was the first visual mod i did and in 1 1/2yrs., no chips, fading, cracking, nothing! great piece. now, if you do go billet again, definately repaint the back area flat black. and yes, you should do minor sanding just to break the surface. use something like 220 grit or less. remember, you're just giving the paint something to adhear to. wash it first with mild detergent soap, rinse well, sand, and rinse again. that should be more than enough to insure that it stays on for a good long time.
