  • Stock Grill Problems

    So my stock grill apparently rubbed off the paint near the bottom edges of it where it makes slight contact with the body. I was wanting to get a billet grill but now I am afraid that the spots where the paint is rubbed off will show with a billet grill. Anyone else have this problem?

        no, if he had a billet grill on there sooner he wouldnt have this problem at all.

        depending on how bad it is, try touch up paint. no one gets that close to your grill anyway so touch up paint will be perfect.

          When I bought the car it was like that, it just sorta slipped my mind over the months (just like how my back bumper got keyed to hell in the first week). Outta sight outta mind sorta thing. I guess I might go with one of those slp gloss black ones, they are so expensive though. I don't really dig the billet grills but with the orange paint, clear corners, really clean headlights, and polished wheels, I figured billet grill is the only way to go with the front.

                      agreed, to some extent. it does make my car look evil, like its smiling getting ready to stomp a hole in your ***. i havent told it the truth yet, poor thing still thinks its a z28. its kinda slow, it hasnt realized its missing 2 cylinders. lol
