Default Front bumper cover and grille one piece? (pics inside)

On some cars, the front bumper cover and the grille look like one part, smooth, and with no "sticking out thing" in the center. Usually, it is the same color as the car, as opposed to black.

Here's the first picture of what I'm talking about that I came across:



Is this one part? Would I have to replace the whole bumper cover? If so, who sells these?

The grille has been removed. Some people fill in the clip holes, but either way it is body color from the factory.

Awesome! That's Free!!!

Next question, I've seen a car that had two screens behind the missing grille, behind everything. Those homemade or...?

Ever seen a car with rallie stripes that went down over the anti-grille? I'm thinking about getting a SS hood and painting red stripes on my white '99 Z, but i don't know how it will look. I like the GMMG Berger Chevy SS on their site.

I popped off the factory grill and put on a Wings West grill, which has the smooth front with places to put wire mesh. Pics in sig.
