the grill and badge reminds me of a VW for some reason. Ya know how the GTI's have the black in front too and it says GTI on the honeycomb. Heres a pic so you can see.



None the less I think its awsome and im considering it for the future.

Well pretty much a noob at the time when I bought these projectors. Thought it would look better in chrome. Being that I had other chrome **** on my car. And they weren't available at the time. I'm got my stockers and I'm gonna paint it black. Working on a project with those

Yeah. I was thinking of taking it off and putting a trailblazer ss on it with a black over lay. But then I would have to remove the smaller ss and I'm not sure if I want do that or paint the emblem black. What do you think

No I didn't paint the grille. It's just the tc grille. I used flat black paint without clearcoat unfortunately. I don't know if they make a flat clearcoat. Flat black was the best option cuz it makes it look like plastic. Like the grille color. An that's what I wanted

My budddy painted mine. He just sanded the bowtie going from rough grit to fine grit. Taped it off and gave it a few coats of spray paint and cleared it. Came out great! I also like that SS badge where it is.

gotcha. I think they make an eggshell clear, try finding that. Kind of between satin and flat. Should work great.

Really!!? I like the ss emblem there but a ton of members didn't. Hmmmm maybe I'll just paint the bowtie black. I was also thinking of de-badgeing the cobalt letters and the ss too. Then putting only the ss badge at the top right like the new camaro. What ya think?

I'll try that. Where do you think I can buy that? I looked at autozone and they didn't have anything like that.

not sure man, i'm sure a body shop could help you out. they could sand and finish it off, do a really good job. shouldn't be too expensive.
