Does anybody know if there are any of these in development? I thnk a recessed grill would be a cheap, but huge improvement

steve, very nice blue gto you have now. how much did the grill run you incl install?

Can you get the replacment grill outlines in the same body color? It seems a bit weird that the outlines were a bit different color than the regular body color.

Impulese Blue GTO, Are those after-market or from GM. I was told you can't order them till Nov 11. They look really nice, I have the same car with a blue gut.

Impulse486 they are factory gm the part nimber is 12499616 took 4 days to get paid 206plus 8% tax not to bad but i work at a dealer that has a chevy store in its fleet of stores purks of the job.I installed it my self yesterday it was not that hard had to take the front cover off.
took about 20min's.

That is a beautiful car dude..

But I gotta say those "sunk in" inserts make it look way too much like a Grand Am.

Impulse Blue GTO-Sounds good! I am also in the car business and am considered a Supplier to GM. I might have to try another way, those grille's look fresh! I believe cost to the dealer is 188.00, they weren't happy that i knew that-

All the better when someone in a Mustang gets spanked by a "Grand Am".

I just bought the new grille replacements for my blue/blue M6, though the instructions say to take off the front fascia. In one of the previous post's, Impulse Blue GTO said that it took 20 mins. Has anyone else done this replacement-anything I need to know before doing this? Any help/tips would be great! Thanks

Ok - ignore my last post here.... I may get them also B)
