Sunfire GXP grilles?!?!?!
Wednesday, May 11, 2011 1:21 AM
I love the look of the Sunfire GXP concept grilles. Definitely different, unique, and one of a kind!!!! Everyone is always asking if they were ever made, or if they are available, and of course the answer is unfortunately no. So........



I made my own!!!!











And of course these take the place of the factory grilles and turn signals, so I "hid" the factory signal assemblies and they are invisible until they are turned on!!!



These took about 4 hours a piece to make, and they are hand-made and hand-painted.
I hope everyone likes them.

Haha, wasnt my intention to hide it. The flash from my cell phone was reflecting back from the licence plate, so I had to improvise. And the title was intentional.

I could make them a little bit thinner but the problem is that the GXP had a different bumper and our factory bumpers have the ridges sticking out to support the factory grilles, and I'm not gonna cut up my bumper, just in case I ever decide to go back to stock.
