I always assumed that the billet grill just fit over the stock one. It should not be a problem to mount fog lights behind them. If you can't use the stock ones, then try finding ones that have less depth, or you could just try mounting the stock ones farther back.


I like billet grills, but if just one of those little bars gets bent slightly out of shape, it becomes very noticable and ruins the look of the billet grill.

i've got an 85 SC and i mounted a pair behind my grill and it's like a window shade style. The billets replace factory grill inserts i think. Only problem i ran into is that the lights down't light much up unless it's fairly straight infront and level to the car because of the width of the grill slats.

I have an 86 z28, and put a billet grille on a few months ago, it fit in front of the fog lights with no problems.
