Anybody use these fog light grills?
https://www.tkoperformance.com/97-04...lls_p_953.html
I like them because of the way the recessed fit....
Curious how other may like them and how the fog lights might look from a more level angle...does the screen block the fog or is the "cutout" sufficient?
Thanks....

I have to agree with the above. I even have those type of grilles on my tail lights and side coves and I did not buy the front ones. But, that all said, it's your car, do as you please.

Not my cup of tea, but also not my car. I like the OEM type screens better.

Some harsh comments but I agree the look isn’t for me. Your Vette and if you like them that’s all that matters.

I hear ya all, I had the regular ZO6 screens in before - like I said I like the recessed look but those fog lite cutouts not so much......

It all depends on what you're doing with the car. If you're all stock, original then the screens may look out of place. BUT if you've done a few cosmetic mods it might be worth giving them a try. You can always remove and sell them. I've got an '03 Z that has seen some track time. Screens are missing and I'm attempting a tow hook install. (Started a thread in C5 Tech). I went to TKO PERF's website and saw their billet grilles. Might be good with the hook, maybe paint them black. Thanks for the info!

Not untrue at times!! Sometimes people can really pounce, when maybe just a little jump would suffice. Not limited to our forum, either. Today the wife and I were grocery shopping at a Publix store,, and got yelled at by some young jerk in a really banged up $500 truck. This guy yells out "Walk across on the crosswalk"!! The crosswalk was just painted white lines on the pavement, maybe, at most, only 3 feet away!! We just considered the source!!

The picture from OP looks overdone because of all the other grilles, the side marker grilles and especially the license plate grille (which probably goes nowhere and doesn't match the finish on the others). PJDBM's grilles are okay, they look a little plastic-y (maybe that's the photo) but they aren't pure distilled rice.

Pjdbm, would you mind some closeups?
I'd like to see how well that fog light lines up/ fits in the opening....
Appreciate it....
