Installed new grill

[Genopsyde]

greetings ppls, today I got bored and decided to install the IROC/Z28 grill that I had purchased on ebay a few months back. Nothing special, but I took some before and after pictures with my cell phone to post, basically just wanted to put up more pics of my car so, here it is...


here's the car on ramps with the original RS grill in place with my "Camaro" licence plate and "Platinum" chain link license plate frame, and yes, I realize that my front end needs some body work, but that'll come later.


here is a photo of the grill removed, there was some strange green slimey crap under that thing.


here is a photo with the new grill installed, it was a fairly easy task that only required a 1/4" ratchet with metric sockets, and a ratchet screw-driver with torx shaped bits.

now I have no use for my "Camaro" license plate since the grill has the same thing, maybe i'll mold it into the dash pad somehow for a custom type look.

last but not least, a final photo after a nice bath, polishing, and waxing.

Oh yea, the reason I did this was to open up the air flow that will go into the TPI airbox that I purchased on ebay, of course, and will connect to my stock round air cleaner setup, how I will fabricate this is still in the works, but I'll show it when I do it.

yeah man, that car is hot shit. i need to find me some of them headlight covers. i suppose ill have to figure out myself how to attatch them better than velcro, dont want em blowing off at speed

[Genopsyde]

grrr, I told you already they ain't velcro, they have adhesive clips on the side

[Genopsyde]

you can see the clips in the picture if you look close enuff.

[89IROC&RS]

yeah now that you mention it...... looks like velcro hahahahaha

but no seriously,think you could take a close up pic of the clips on the bumper and the covers, so i can get a idea. an what brand are they????

[Genopsyde]

will do, they're made by GTS and I think AVS makes em now too.

Those do look sweet covering your front end, but then you will realize that they are not so sweet. The hold moisture under them and cause the paint to chip by flapping in the wind under harsh conditions, like highways, so please stay away from them, my camaro came with one. I finally got the balls to take it off to look at the damage and luckily there wasn't much, just on the tips of the curves on the hood is there rust.

my front end is ugly, the bottom is kinda broke up cause i slid into a ditch, so i out the bra on to hide all that ugly stuff

[tacoma man]

hell i thought it was a different car. did the
bra do that? the front on my 91 rs was
busted up. i too put a bra on it and it took
the paint off my hood.

[ridge_runner]
