The SLP grill looks ugly when painted body collor, I think the Wings west type grills are the only ones that look good body collor.

Heres my old SS with the Wings west and my own paint scheme...

I will eat my words about my comment on the body collored SLP grill looking bad, your car is the first/only exeption I have seen though.

I tried that before I bought the Wings west grill, the factory opening looked too big and gaudy looking to me. I was never crazy about the styling of the front of the fourth gen Camaros, no matter what I did I was never happy with it. I allways got a lot of complements on the Wings west grill so I decided to stick with it.

I ended up selling the Camaro and buying a TA, they look great right out of the box.

ya. because of where the impact was they put it on to make sure it didnt get jacked up and it made it easier to pull the upper rail straight.

I see now, at first glance it look like a nifty way of getting a motor out the bottom. Then i saw the measuring tape...
