    you guys got any good pics of g-10s with a custom grill installed?
    kinda like a 54 chevy grill teeth or mabie some Desoto grill teeth!?
    and have any of you got any good ideas for front or rear bumper alternatives ? mine are total junk ,I think a 50 ford truck bumper will work and they can be gotin in stainless too.

    If you click on the Search tab at the top of the page and type in bumper, you'll see many threads including the Camaro bumper one. Then you can search on grill and find threads that might have some pictures.

    Coming up with something to fill the opening is the easy part! The tough part is creating a proper lip for the opening you cut so it looks right.....I made a grille for my 66 out of a piece of polished aluminum flat bar cut about an inch smaller in the shape of the opening with the stock signals on the ends and a row of vent holes cut with a hole saw..... folded slightly in the center with an "SS396" chevelle v fender badge in the center...... It was functional and the "floating" grille looked good, but the cutout never looked right
