    I you didn't live on the other end of the country.
    Post a picture. Maybe I'll take part of it. Or something can be worked out.

    My idea to cut out the center vertical post where the badge is and come up with a grill. But if I can fit In the golden grill there that would be better.
    Here's a pic I found on here someone else made.

    Something like this.

    I just don't like how the car looks like every other Pontiac on the lot. Just like a g6. This little change makes a world of difference.

    What one do you have the flat hood or g8 hood version?

    To everyone pming me about my bumper. I am not willing to sell it until my new bumper is here from Australia. It WILL be up for sale in 2-3 months time for anyone serious. I have posted feelers on facebook more than once and gotten offered $1500-$2000 by multiple buyers. Gotta pay to play yall! I know the ebay one is like $750. But it doesn't fit... ask me how I know.

    Yep! I obviously paid the $750 for the bumper. Along with $200 for the custom fog lights I had made up. Plus $500 for making it fit right. Add another $300 onto that for primer and paint. And I had to modify my factory fog light harness to accomodate and I believe a new oem harness is ~$150 so I have to accomodate for that as well.
