found a few of the SLP grills on eBay for whoever is interested.. Although they have a red LSX emblem on the front... I have a red LS and kinda think this would give it a tad bit of sex appeal IMO due to the body work I am doing and swaps inside and out and under the hood... Making it truly an original without getting ricey..

I do like the crest, but not the factory nose we have grille wise... And seems I'm gonna b flaunting an LSx emblem, I'll just shave my crest off and keep em like a mistress. Bwahahaha jk :-p

I was considering one for my silver LS. Would i have to paint the area inside behind the grill? I feel like a black grill with silver behind it would look bad

I picked up one off EBay and now the tough part, how to paint. I have a Dale Jr, both Scarlette & Greg (Zippy02) cars looked good in body color and contrast of the grill. Thinking that with a contrasting paint, would need to spray it behind as well. Oh well I have all winter to figure out which I like better.

Where you got those headlights? They are awesome!
