My 2001 Mystic Teal Metallic Camaro Z28 Hey everyone. Well as things worked out, i traded in my 2001 Toyota Tacoma for my 2001 Mystic Teal Metallic Z28. Car is A4, T-Top, Leather, ASR, and from what my friend said is 3.42 geared. Car has 36k Miles on it and i got a fantastic deal! After driving this car, compared to my LT1, Holy Jesus. I will never go back, OR to another car/truck for that matter. This car is incredible. Its all stock down to the lid, except for the stock y pipe is cut right under the cab(sounds pretty good) and what looks to be a TCI Trans Brake. It also has a couple of other switches so i think it may have been sprayed. Anyway, i was wondering how easy the trans brake will be to take off? Im selling it to a friend. What is all included with the trans brake dissasembly? Any help is appreciated but as for now, heres a couple pics. Pulled off the dealer badges and stickers, washed it, cleaned the hell out of the inside, and im thinkin about pulling off the black front grill if anyone can point me in the right direction on how to do so? I also pulled the spare tire and jack/tire iron/holding parts/metals. To the pics! Let me know what ya think!

Congrats and welcome to the LSx family bro! Good to see that things worked out and you finally got your LS1. Enjoy it and be safe. 
There's two ways you can remove your front grille. The long way - Take the front bumper off and easily remove the clips that hold the grille on. And if you don't like the way it looks, you can put it back on. It's time consuming and a bit of work.
Or you can do the good old yank method and just pull it off. You will break the clips that are holding the grille on making it a one time removal and good thing is you won't have to remove the bumper lol. Takes about 20 seconds and your done, but you will have to buy new clips if you want to reinstall the stocker.

Very nice car. I have a 1998 MTM Trans Am.
I still wish I would have bought the only MTM Blackbird made from GMMG. It was the only one made in that color and I think was the only one that started as a non-WS6 car but I could be wrong.
