She will look good this spring

I just bought new hood louvers and a new camaro grille and park lamps from thirdgenresource, i think it will be a great improvment in looks.
Now the question : how do i change the grille?? Is it hard to do, any hidden screws or anything else??

Next question: Where can i find a couple of good foglights , thirdgenresource wants to much money for them . Any ideas ?

Heres a picture of her now, i will post an after picture as soon as Usps delivers my package.

The grill is not hard to change just a few screws. Once you get into it should take about 10 mins. Cars looks good make sure to post some new pictures when she got her new parts on!

the grill is really easy to do. I just did mine two weeks ago, and took about 5-10 minutes. You will notive a huge difference between the old louvers and grill, compared to the new items.
The foglights are very expensive to replace at $98.00 a piece(classic industries).

Yeah and for those 98 a piece you wont get a complete kit, only the lights. I need the whole kit because the old is in a really bad shape.

If you just needed the fog lights you can find them at Wal-mart for about 12 a peice and take them out of there aftermarket brakets and put them in your stock ones. Thats what I did for my T/A I think camaros work the same way but you might want to check first.

And don't forget to post pics when all is installed (everyone likes pics )
