Corvette mods,the reason it looks different is I added a red pinstripe down the center and added anLS3 badge on the left.

The GS has a wider grill opening. I just noticed this the other day.

From where I’m sitting, the red stripe is not very visible which makes the grille appear to be missing a horizontal bar in the center. I like the look of the LS3 logo on the right side of the grille.

Curious , How is that grille held on ? My Z06 came with one from the dealer ( 1st owner trade in) and I see no screws etc holding it on !

It also has what appears to be chrome Billets "decals" applied over the signal lights. Use a heat gun to carefully remove those I'm guessing ??

Thanks

OP, nice work. It is a clean and simple design and almost looks like an OEM piece.

Held on with zip ties around the vertical pieces in the factory grill.
