Billet Grill
Hi,
just thought I'd share a pic of my Billet grill.
I installed it a few weeks ago.

Look at the pic... It's a vert.
But I may have posted in the wrong area.
The grill is made by Trendz. I'll find a link for you.

Hmm....
The place where I bought mine no longer carries them.
Here's the link though....
Trenz Billet Grilles
I wonder if Trenz stopped making them??
Mis-spell on the trendz.... it's actually Trenz.
Mine is nice though... Good workmanship allthough the directions or instructions were crap. Had to figure most of it out on my own.
Most important thing.... Mine did not affect my cooling temp at all. Getting just as much air as I did with factory.

Thanks!
I have stainless steel emblems on the car and with my Torq Thrust II rims... the grill just set off the car "that" much more. I get a lot of rubber necking and pointing when I'm driving.
It would look good on a white car if you have something else chrome or silver on the car. IMO.
I bought it to tie in the car with the emblems and rims.
My black grill did just not cut it anymore.
I've had some people tell me... that grill makes the front end look much better with the headlights and parking lights.
It's much more matched.

I see 110 views and only 7 replies.
Would love to hear your info.
Like... Don't like?
I've gotten more replies drving down the road than on this board......
And they were driving Fords and imports.
Hmm.... Did I make my car a rice wanna be?
Please say no!
Many have told me it's makes the car look much better, and gives it a "I want that car" look.

Yes.... Teal.... or as I've heard Mystic teal.
Changes as the sun.... I've never photographed in green before, but it looks that way in person.

I like it, it finishes the front off nicely, but the important thing is that you like it mate. Who cares what a bunch of keyboard jockeys think anyway (myself included ) LOL.

Looks tasteful, I want to do the same thing when I get ready to build my camaro. Does anyone have any info where we can buy these since it appears the Trenz site no longer sells this for our cars?

They look very good when you have the fog lights on. The grills are mad fro non z-28's. And the directions are crap. My friend had to be creative to get me to keep my fog lights in. Got mine from street beat.

well since you asked for opinions, I personally dont like it. it in my opinion cheapens the look of the front end. Especially with the factory grille remaining under it, or if its not under it, with that black plastic border around it, it makes it look cheap. or well thats my opinion of it.
sorry.

That's funny! 20 dollars just to tell you where to buy the grille? I guess some folks have more money than sense....

Looks awesome! Anyone know where to get a grill like that in black? doesn't necessarily have to be metal. I've got a while IROC and I've been looking for an aftermarket grill. Not too sure the billet will look right on the white car with all the blackouts
