welcome. :cheers: It is much easier to drill some holes in the stock fog light surrounds than to install the cold air screens. If you want to go the aftermarket surround way - I can help you with the install, just shoot me an email. Either way - you can do it separately, but if you add the Z06 screens - it is easier to do that step last, after installing the cold air surrounds or drilling the stock ones. :seeya

I actually removed all the stock stuff, but I bought the Vararam kit to fill the holes. The Z06 screens according to the Dealership I went to, said you do not need anything behind them. You will need to buy screws or body clips to attach them to the car though. I used body clips, for $2 at any local parts store.

Depending which Z06 screens you decide to install depends on the installation. I installed the front Z06 screens using a very simple velcro system. I installed velcro on the inside of the bumper hole and on the top and bottom of the screens. Then when you push them in they will be real tight and fit flush without taking the front of the car apart. Easy and it works. You cant even pull them out by hand without alot of force. Looks great either way you decide. [IMG][/IMG] http://pic5.picturetrail.com:80/VOL7...0/14726182.jpg
