Just ordered mine, look forward to seeing your install.

Is yours a Z51?

I sure like that grill much better than the one on the base car.

I am assuming the front bumper needs to be removed for the installation?

So, do you need any other parts to install the grill that would need to be ordered with it?

What is the part number for Z51 cars?

No you don't. It's a direct OEM replacement for our stock grille.

The part number I got in Canada was: 22790956
That is ordered straight from my dealer. It may or may not be the same for you guys.

Nice video, thanks.

QUESTION: When you dropped the nose, were the lights exposed enough to remove them and swap out the bulbs? I want to go to 6K bulbs but was dreading the process as it calls for:

Jack up the front
Removing the front wheels
Removing the fender liner
Removing the air dams
Removing the skid plate
Remove the nose
Remove the light housing

Change bulb

Do all that crap in reverse now.

Thank you very much for the post and for being one of my new company's first customers. We do have some other Z06 parts we are working on getting in.

The cat is out of the bag regarding my new business, CULTRAG Performance. All can read the details in the thread below. Here is a photo of the grille.

Thank you for your support. You have been extremely supportive! Right now I have left and right Z06 emblems in stock. With everything else going on I haven't had a chance to post it.

We are actually working on the Z06 widebody conversion as well. People are going to be extremely surprised at how affordable it is going to be.
