I think this makes the Camaro 100% more agressive looking, I think the 'Buck-tooth" style is a little... ugly

look at LT1powered89's red camaro, that grill looks so sweet....

What are your opinions...

Yea those grills came stock on alot of cars for instance on my 92 camaro rs. The other ones you see are the bowtie grills which in my opionion look better and probably flow air better.

Personally, I prefer the bowtie style myself, so I bought one for my car. If you like the louvered one better, I still have my original louvered one (which is mint) that you can have for a lot less than a new one.

Wow, I never thought I'd hear someone say that! I always hated that grill. Putting on the Z28 grill was the first appearance mod I did to my car.

thats what i said about the "bucktooth" look, so i trashed the stock fog lights and put in new ones mounted right near the rad, so you cant see them untill there on, or if your on the ground and your eye level with them...

How easy are they to put on?

And for the lights that I will probably take off, Do I just unhook them or what?

You can buy either grill at the dealer for 58 dollars, just put a 92 Bowtie grill on mine......I have the stock one for cheap if anyone wants it......Had the Camaro one first, but the paint came off, so the dealer warrantied it, and let me get the other one instead...It looks better to me....Tom

I have that one and I like it since it goes w/ the hood louvers (86 Z28). My buddy w/ a B4C (92 RS) has the bowtie, I think they both look good on their respective cars. If I ever swap out the hood, I'll swap out the grill.
