  • removing stock girll on 00

    is there any tips on getting it off i can get the 2 clips on the sides off but the middle kinda seems stuck. Is there a way to get it off with out damaging it? and is there a bad side to removing all that foam stuff behind the grill? cause i noticed that it looks really nice back there cause it has camaro lettering under the grill and is painted and stuff. anyone have pics of their car with no grill?

            just yank on it. the bumper is plastic so its made to bend. you'll feel like its gonna rip the bumper off but trust me it just yanks off

              99% of the people just yank. however, im pretty sure you can cut the tabs so you dont have to yank. but yanking is the fastest and probally easyest methold. i've seen it done and dont like how much the bumper its self moves.

                    I believe the foam is there to help the front clip keep its shape and also to act as a cushion in a collision.

                      well i took it off and its funny that it says camaro under the grill. why imprint it there if you are jsut gonna cover it up with a big black plastic grill

                        Is that how yours looked when you took off the grille? Because it looks better than 98 3.8's did with the grille off. It looks like you had that part painted...
