Yea im not all worried.. Once I finish paying more of my debt Todds bro in law will fix it for me
I understand these grill instructions but then I dont. So in a bit Ill post up & maybe some one can break them down into dummy dummy terms

1) You are going to use a total of 4 clips for this step. Due to the distinct grillle design of the 93-97 camaro the installation is a bit difficult. On the inside edge of the front end black plastic material on either side of each fog light, place one of the aluminum mounting clips provided. If needed, squeeze the clip opening so that it is slightly smaller than the edge of the ABS to assure a secure fit.
2) Place grille insert inside the grille opening with the best side out
3) startubg at the far left side of the grille, route a ziptie through a hole on the insert. Be sure to route it as close to the edging as possible in order to reduce zip tie visibility. Then wrap it rhough the hole in the mounting clip and back through the closest hole in the grille insert. Secure the zip tie loosely in place. Repeat step for each mounting clip.
4) Tighten all zip ties to secure grille in place however be careful not to tighten excessively because it may damage the grille insert.
As an added suggestion you may choose to purchase some long stainless steel screws and simply attach grille by screwing directly into the black plastic of your camaros front end
K the part that confused me was just step 1.. I get the rest of them but dont really see how it can mount around the fog light? And then step 3. No clue really where to mount the zip ties around so it will stay firmily again the front end?

When I met Trisha she actually gave my camaro its nickname. I didnt even have one @ the time.
Its nothing big spencer lol. Pretty lame to others but Ive always wanted to do it so now that I finally have what I need and if all goes well when I get out of work tomorrow I will throw up some pics.
Put on the grille today with thanks going to Shawn(the_dragon) and his brother Mike. Pretty difficult but its on. When the bumper comes off when I put on my black clear corners will probably find another way to hold it up a little better but its works

Pics of the grille.. one of the zip ties is really noticable but like I said once the clear corners come in will mount it better.. the brackets that came with it completely suck but I have an idea on a better mounting position




I know my front bumper has been through hell in back but this one will becoming off once I get the yellow one painted haha.. Nothing like a good ole project car!

Heres what I was working on. Shipment came in from Sterling Heights.
Bought some stencils and an xacto knife and went to town
. Went with Flat black vinyl. Bought enough of it just incase I had alot of oops 
I know its not perfect and need to edge up around the S & O but dammit I like it!
Wish I was able to use both my hands. Im left handing and getting around some of the corners was no easy task.


The first pics really doesnt show as much red going through around the letters. I wanted a good pics so zoomed in close and pop the flash
