Default Heritage grill install pics

Hey guys so I got a great deal on a CGM heritage grill finally and today since it was unusually warm and snowless for mid January I decided to go outside and put it in. Like all the other guides say its pretty easy. I just used some snap ring pliers for those clips. Anyway you'll have to wait for the pictures of the final assembly until tomorrow. It got dark while I was tightening up the last couple bolts putting the wheel wells back in. I do have a few before/during shots for now.

The first pic is sucky quality, it was dark out but thats the grill installed.

The second pic is from today, we had a big snow storm last night..but you can see the grill in this one better. Once the weather is better I'll get some nice shots

looks good; sleek and aggressive. I wouldn't put any SS badge on it personally.

like i said i was tossing the idea around. for now i'm leaving it. i LOVE the look. like you said, sleek and agressive.

next is the Gen 1 spoiler, and black tail light bezels. already got the RS tail lights which are darker than the 1SS lights that came with the car. i want it to look sinister

you have any plans for the wheels??? powder coating them black or matching the paint would help with the sleek sinister look
