Does anyone know where I can get a billet insert for my SS hood. I have seen them on some 4th gen SS camaros before but never thought to ask where I could get one. I have a piece of expanded metal in there now which looks ok, but I would really like something different. Any help would be appreciated.

 

yeah id like to know too. this would be a nice way to get rid of the sorta shotty looking grill.

 

As far as i know, you could mabey email Hawks Thirdgen, and ask for a custom job... or any billet grill places, or ditributers, (JC Whitney) just my 2 cents. In case you have not thought of these posibilities

 

Any other suggestions?

 

Make your own. I made my own for the foglight openenings in my car. My car didn't come with foglights and I didnt' want sh*t blowin in there so I put a mesh if you will there instead. The mod has lasted 6 years now. Granted, 5 of those years my car was on jackstands more or less being put back together....

 

I can't exactly make my own... Does no one offer anything like this?

 

Can you find out if the opening on our hoods is the same size as a 4th gen? If it is, there is places out there that do make the grills for the 4th gen SS. Maybe get on a 4th gen forum and ask them?

 

i have seen them but i'll have to find it again because it was a while back but i will post the site as soon as i find it again

 

I made one along time ago....I bought a billet grill for a mustang....trimmed it down....cut and fit..cut and fit...and it fit and looked great. Sold it for like 50 bucks.

 

yea you can make them, they sell mesh squares all over the place black or chrome, but i also seen one made specifically for the ss style hood that was billet

 

lol, I thought I worked slow.
------------------------------
Lowes should have some chicken wire or something close. Just cut it to fit and spray it.

 

yeah, sounds like your talking about the cheap mesh from autozone. I'm talking about Billet Aluminum......which was pretty expensive. The way I see it...if it's not made for our cars...make it yourself.

 

That grill does look nice where did they get it??? i want one

 

I also want the grill pictured above, or one like it. Does anyoe know who's car that is? I've pretty much given up on finding one anywhere. If someone could make one for me, I'd be glad to compensate...

 

That my car...I sold the grill a few years back....the grill was easy to make...
I went back to the stock grill....

 

Would you be willing to make one for me??

 

or one for us lol i will def pay for the work

 

if I would have known at the time I made this...I would have had no problem making a few extra...but sorry boys...can't take the car apart to make'em. If your good with metal...and can take a few measurements....you can do it.

 

Just make a template out of poster board & transfer cut out to whatever you are gonna use.

 

Ok, well if anyone out there does make a few of them, I'd be interested in one. I'd do it myself, but I'm an amputee, so working with my hands is a little difficult...
