Z06 style grills from Eckler's and clear corners (a great way to get rid of the 'yellow turn signals') off ebay!

I did the blacked out corners. Not going to add screens in the front. I am going to add the RaceMesh screens on the sides. Got the turn signal blackout covers from PartsForYourCar.com

I like the looks of the mesh screens on the cars. That's the way I would go.
