YOU know in some states you have to run FRONT PLATE, well you can use the factroy bezel and then install screen. save your current liscence plate cover. what i like to know is where can i find some cool screen, like the screen that z06 uses.

Hey Guy's, if your looking for Z06 SS screen give McMaster a call at 330-995-5500, tell them you want part # 304 5x5 .041, this is the same screen my Z06 has, I bought a 12 x24 " sheet from them for $20.02 and they delivered it to my door the next day and I live in San Diego. BTW that sheet was enough to do the two front brake air holes, the side fender scoops and the four slots on the rear facia with enough left for another hole or two, just watch out the way you lay the pieces on on the sheet of screen before you cut them out. I used clear silicone to attach all of them and they seem solid as a rock so far.

I looked at their website and they dont list a 5x5 mesh. they list a 1x1 all the way up to 4x4?? do they just not list it but they carry it??

I got this idea from a couple of guys on the forum, and thought that it was so good, that I copied it!
Thanks guys!

It's the stock cover that I dremeled out and fitted it with the factory Z06 screen (the same stuff as posted above). It looks better in person.
