warwgn3 Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 I know I'm still kinda new here, and I still have alot to learn about W-bodys, (King of B-body's speaking here, lol), But I was wondering why GM made a different grill for the Z-34 instead of having the same slotted grill as the Euro's. In my opinion, the solid Z-34 grill makes the Lumina look like a Cavalier on steroids. I think the slotted grille looks better. My brother actually thinks my Euro would look cool with the Z-34 hood with the slots, and the standard slotted grill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5speedz34 Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 They made it to set it off from other luminas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warwgn3 Posted March 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 Get that damn grille painted yet? :willynilly: :willynilly: Speaking of painting grilles, I have to paint mine... it's faded pretty bad. Actually if you can understand where I'm coming from, with the cars I grew up with and later owned, I kinda wish my Lumina had more chrome.

cutlsp Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 tell me what your guy's method is for painting...... do you spray on one heavy coat of paint with no wet sanding or do you wet sand before each coat of paint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
