Re: TTW Third Gen Phantom Grill

I just want to say where ever you go on the net looking at 3rd gen camaros a picture of this camaro without the front end is there. Are the rims the original 16"rim and what size tire are you riding on? Tony D.

Re: TTW Third Gen Phantom Grill

It seemed like a cool idea that I had also thought of but was looking for someone else who had already done it. I never saw any of the final pics. Can anyone post them?

Re: TTW Third Gen Phantom Grill

Reviving this thread as there was interest in seeing a finished version of a "phantom" grille on a third gen. Finished mine today and it turned out better than what I had planned. I'm happy with it. I hope others like it, and i'm sure some will not. I will try to get the car out of the garage for some different angles tomorrow.

I agree.

Makes me think of a cave man with a huge forehead.

Kills the looks of the car IMO.

Great job there. Different but still very 3rd gen. If you could make a lower grille to match the top that would really tie it together.

What did you guys use for the grill. Is it just a 5th gen grill? Doesn't look pointy enough to be one. I like the mods though. 3rdgencamaro4me, I really like the modernized head light pods.
