the 1998 to 2002 grills were based of the 70's grills, but there is a reason they were just "based off of...", and not implanted; because it looks wrong.

The bodywork looks well done from the pictures, I'll give it that.

to each his own I guess..

From certain angles it looks good, but that dead on view just looks odd. As Andy said though, gotta give the guy credit on the body work.

Excellent job with how he put the grille together. Honestly i think it looks way too big for that bumper.

Good work, but give it a year, it'll soon be cracked and shitty looking form all the modification that he had to do, using bondo and such. That is of course assuming it's a DD.

All GenIV Camaros remind me of that. LOL! However, I do like that look and how it brings the GenII design into the present. I think it ties in very well. Just my opinion though. Like was mentioned previously...to each their own.
