That's not a billet grill. That's the Tony Stewart grill.

It's all plastic. You paint it to your pleasing. Then stick on overtop your existing grill opening with 3M double sided tape.

I bought an SLP grill off of ebay. It looks like the Tony Stewart grill, but has the chevy bowtie in the center.

The Tony Stewart grill is an original GM part. The SLP was from SLP Performance, but is no longer available. Unless you manage to find one second hand.

Attached below SolowSS's car, is a picture of the SLP grill (the red car).

The red car belongs to a friend on another forum.

Dam! Wish I would have looked there before I bought mine off ePay.

Guess I should have asked now shouldn't I? LOL.

I'll learn for next time.

i appreciate the 3800performance.com link, that grill is nice, but i'm getting very angry tho cause...

I DONT KNOW HOW TO CHANGE THE GRILL! i looked at my carlo and noticed that my grill is connected to the bumper, its an 05 LS, but the SS grills are the same they are attached to the bumper

maybe im having a blonde moment, but how do you put that grill on?!

Looks like its just put on over the existing grill. Look closer at the large picture you can see where the shield should be in the center. My guess is you have to remove the sheild and the new grille is held in place with 3M tape. Suppose that's why people are putting a bowtie or ss in the center. Not 100% but that's my take, maybe someone that has one can back me up.
