Default Brand new DG black billet grille

Well, it took me about an hour and a half last night relocating the horns and disassembling the old grille, then about 2 hours this morning mounting the fogs (drilling into the radiator support and bumper cover required), and mounting the grille (again, drilling into the radiator support and bumper cover required).

Well without further ado, here's some cell phone pics taken during the main steps of the process. Comments, questions, opinions welcome.

Grille Removed




Fogs Installed




Final product:

That looks really good and clean man. And man I see some black staggered wheels on your car in my head right now!

awww man!

I LOVE the fog lights on the GT.
It just says GT to me.

Like the black billet!
I would have gone with one that had fog cut outs though!

OH and +1 on the black wheels.

Those you have now are pretty nice but are kinda cookie-cutter looking to me.
( not really "custom" looking). I know they are not stock but they just kinda look like
something that would come stock on a car.

Your car looks so custom besides the wheels.

The black wheels are DEFINITELY a prescription for your car bro!

P.S. I also think head light splitters would make the car look VERY aggressive and look GREAT.

that looks sweet goes well with all the other mods. On a semi related note I saw that you have your old chrome Billet grilles for sale what do you want for them? I think they would look good on my ride.

As for the black wheels thing, I dunno, I think the chrome looks really good with the stripes. That blue really goes well with some shine.

Good work mad, looks good. I didn't realize you had to shuffle all that stuff around to make this setup work. I would have read the instructions and then sent it back...lol.
As far as wheels go, my choice would be the chrome or anthracite 10th anniversary svt's. I think they would look ultra hot on your ride bro.
just my .02
