Default Vararam Owners please...

Curious to know if you can re-use the factory grills over the inlets or do you have to buy new ones? If so what are some quality inserts to look at? Thanks

Factory grills, you mean Z06 screens? If so, yes, I have factory Z06 screens over my Vararam intake ducts, no modification necessary.

Yes the Z06 screens. I was under the impression that they were to be removed do to fit and finish issues. If I can my current ones great. Thanks billdog

NO. they dont have to be removed at all. the vararam butts up to the inlet. your screens do not have to be removed. The black plastic pieces that has the hole for the fog light has to be removed b/c the vararam is mounted using those screw holes. go to vararam i believe they have an instruction manual with pic on their site
