i've been checking it out, and i actually want to try to take it off tonight or tomorrow. we are kinda screwed when it comes to the grill cause if you take the chrome off you see holes... not sure yet how many yet, i started to take it off a few weeks ago but i lost motivation after having a looooong day. im gonna go out there in a bit and look again. i will take pics but so far i have been un-successful with posting them on here so if you can help me with that i will get them on here.

so i've been driving my aveo around without a grill. not the brightest idea- but i'm trying to figure out how i want to do this cause the way the plastic is molded we aren't left with many options. so far i have come up with a couple ideas, but i want opinions from other 07 sedan owners to find out what you guys want to see it look like.
so the question is- what is your ideal grill???



sorry no pics yet, i still can't get my camera working correctly. but i will do my best to get them up soon.

I put up a quick picture in my garage that I made up in Paint of what I'd like my Aveo sedan to look like. I edited the grille to also look like I'd want it.

First off, the gold on the chevy bow tie has to go. It doesn't match anything else on the car. I attempted to make mine look like chrome. Somewhat successful, but I think leaving the chrome around the outside of the bow tie and painting the middle black like g0ast did would look nice. Overall, I like g0ast's grille, looks very clean.

I kept some of the chrome for the frame of the grille, but took the chrome bar in the middle out. Its got no business being there, I think.

I haven't really looked too much into taking the grille apart yet. I've been pretty busy with med school. Let me know how it turns out boxkiller. Hopefully I'll be able to start doing a few things this next summer when I've got a couple months off from school.

looks good! very similar to how i plan on doing my grill. i will be starting on it tomorrow. i am a bit nervous to be honest though- there will be a lot of cutting involved- so i'm hoping it turns out right or i will be giving chevy $130.00 for a new grill. i think my hunny and i can pull it off though. we will see. wish me luck!!!
