Hey guys well grilles seem to be a pretty popular topic recently on the forum haha, so ive got a question relating to them.
I have seen these on a few other camaros and i think it looks pretty good, but my question is, does anyone have a write up for this? done it before? could give advice on how to do it?

I did it; it's very simple. I'll do a mini write up, but have no install pictures.
First things first. What I started with a 98+ camaro. I yanked that FUGLY plastic grill that came with the car right out. I had bought a billet grill off of ebay. stainless steel. I also bought a set of PIAA driving lights from a speed shop; but you can get them a lot of places i.e ebay. Maybe even autozone. The driving lights have mounting brackets that are kind of U shaped. You make them look strait forward, and you screw them into your bumper with supplied screws. You then mount the lights themselves directly to the U shaped bracket. Aim them as high/low as you would like, and tighten the lights to the brackets. Now the fun part. What I did, since the lights came with some cheesy aftermarket switch that I was not going to put in my car, I spliced into my factory fog light wires with the wires from the new PIAA driving lights. That way they all would turn on at the same time. I then put the ground wire under the bolts that are obvious as soon as you open the hood. They aren't the headlight bracket bolts, theres some more there, I just grounded the wires there. But you could ground them anywhere, I just grounded them with my HIDs... ANyways. So I wanted them to all come on with the factory foglight switch. I just threw away the fusebox and switch that came with them because you don't need them if you do it this way. Then, I reinstalled the billet grill and viola!. They are there, haven't had any problems whatsoever with them, and I love them. It really gives it an aggressive look. Hope this helps.
I know its not a great write up. I didn't have a lot of time. But if you have any questions just ask. Its a simple DIY thing.
