Hi, I just purchased a brand new grill for my 91 RS, and i was wondering how to install it. Its not a 91 or 92 grill it says CAMARO on the front instead or having the bow tie and I was wondering how to install it. I'm sure its easy, but I don't want to risk messing anything up on my car, so who wold know better then veterans who have done the mod before. Pics would be great, but any type of description would be a big help thanks!

Physically it either fits or it doesn't, it is attached by a few screws possibly torx screws and should be remove it, install it. Am I missing something, are you trying to figure out how to fab it in there

Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day, teach a man to fish, and he will sit on a boat drinking beer for a life time

Thanks for the response!
Naw, I'm not trying to fab anything, I just don't have the first clue about taking the old grill out, and installing this new one I just got lol
Just look directly at the grille closely, you will see screws attaching it

Remove the license plate and the other few torx or bolts. Reverse the process to put the other one on.It's been a couple years since I put mine together. Not hard realy.
And will the same screws holding the old grill on work with the new grill?
Yes. And your RS grille may have 3 screws through the front (under the louvers) holding the center section in. Your new grille probably has 4 screw holes in the sides of the center section (2 in each side), I used some drywall screws there for my grille.
a simple install . remove old grill , wash/clean areas behind grill . look at new grill , look old grill . install screws as needed for new grill . done with speed nuts . good luck .
Thanks for all ur input guys, you were all a big help, i got the grill on an it looks great i had to go under the car and remove a couple bolts from the air tunnel thing, then i could take a 4 screws that you cant get from the front, then i just put the new grill on changed some clips on the top, put in 4 new screws on the sides of the new grill and put the two screws on the top of the grill back on, screwed the bolts back in from the air tunnel thing an it looks great ill put pics up soon.
Thanks again.
