Are grills the same between years? (non-SS)
Hey guys,
I have an 09 LT and need to know if the grills from earlier years are exactly the same size/shape. I'm looking to do a custom painted 3 bar/mesh grill and can probably get an older one cheap around Calgary. Anybody know?
Also, I guess I should ask if anyone in the Calgary, Alberta area has one to sell?
Thanks

Original photo:
These are the 2 I think I'm choosing between:
The Chrome Tux:
or The Black and Blue Bruiser:
...and these are all my other coloured mesh experiments:
The Green Hornet:
Jackolantern:
Don't Smear My Lipstick:
Bumble Bee:
...let me know what you guys think!
PS: Kinda funny how there's still a reflection of the original grill on the bumper... But I think you get the idea.

...and I thought the "chrome" one was pretty bright. Didn't want to make it too shiney cause it would look too out of place with the dark picture.

PS: I think the BLUE is my favorite, too. Make it a nice triple clear coat chrome blue mesh. I like anything that can be described as "electric" blue. Reminds me of my 03 POS Cruiser I just got rid of. Almost got the HHR in the bright metallic blue, wife wanted black. Too bad she isn't the one that has to clean and wax it!

gold
it looks good with the amber lights. i don't know why some hate the amber lights. plus you could also put the original gold bowtie back. could also add ambe/oranger backlighting , behind the grill. i seen the orange/amber backlighting on a newer dodge charger, it looked great.

I like the 1st one (black or dark gray I think), but would like to see a light gray or silver. Also, the red would look good, but needs to be a brighter red IMO.
It must be nice to be able to photo shop what you want to see it before you hack something up.
