Got the grill on today! I didn't paint behind it because my car is already a dark color. You can't see the color unless you're looking for it so I'm happy. Also, I painted the lower grill black, instead of dropping another $70 on the lower grill insert. I used only two coats of Rustoleum gloss black, and it looks FANTASTIC. ALSO, I did some engine bay dress up lol. I painted the braces, and engine cover silver, then painted the 3800 Series II and V6 the same color as my car with some touch up paint. Then I put a MonteCarloForum.com decal on the cover. Pics will be up tomorrow. The only thing I need for the front end is a plate cover. To bad they're almost impossible to find! D:<

Thanks for all your support this far!

Sorry I didn't get these up earlier, guys! I've been kindof busy. But here they are. I still have yet to paint the outer ring on the grille the same color as my car. Can't wait to get that done!

 

Grille is looking good!

 

Very nice!

Looks good

 

Thanks guys! I just got done painting the outer ring the same color as my car. Looks a million times better!

Also, anyone know of a plate filler for sale? I've been looking everyday and I still can't fine one! D:<

Thanks!
Tyler

 

Ive been trying to get my hands on a plate filler also.Im going to use it as a template to make fiberglass ones. I beleive there may be a market for a cheap alternative.

 

If you could make those, I would definitely buy one!

 

Ok. I just finished cleaning the Monte. Then with the Monte sitting next to the Chevelle. I wanted to see the difference sitting a foot apart. With the front ends facing the street. Then It hit me. I wanted the Chevy emblem off the grill. To make it look close the front end of the Chevelle. So I started to read a post on here about grill's. Damn if Tyler didn't have the same idea. But here the problem. Since I don't have a manual. How does the grill come off an 06 SS ?? I don't see that I can just take the bowtie off & replace it with the SS emblem. Any help ??? Thanks Rick
