Here is something cool I did and I never saw it done before, not saying it was never done but I think its pretty cool. So I was looking at new grills and I couldn't see paying 1000.00 for a grill that said Chevrolet on it, so I bought one for a third of the price and made it to say Chevrolet. It was pretty easy to do and ill show you how I did it for those who want to do it also. And here are the steps I did and the things you will need. First you will need a grill, 67-68 chevy hood emblem kit, paper ( I used butcher paper ) hunk of cardboard, pencil, drill bits (not sure what two I used but im sure you can figure it out).
1st thing I did was take old grill that said Chevrolet and lay it on saw horses and tape paper over Chevrolet, I used one long piece but you can tape regular white paper together and it should work.
2nd step was I took a short carpenters and shaved it down so the pencil lead was showing along the whole side, then I went over the paper to show the Chevrolet. this is just for the spacing and the letters on the grill and the emblems are almost the same.
3rd I took the paper off the grill and stuck it over a old cardboard box this is so you can push emblems threw the paper and it will give you the lay out of the studs on the back of the emblems. Just hold emblem of the paper get it lined up and push it threw, VERY IMPORTANT..........CHECK THE TWO E's IN THE EMBLEM KIT.......the two in my kit had different studs on the back so as you pop them in the cardboard leave them in till you done then you cant screw it up. I didn't screw mine up but got confused when the first e wouldn't fit then saw they were different.
4th take emblems out of cardboard and match up the studs on the back of the emblems with some drill bits. there are two studs on the back of each letter one has a nut the other is just a stud, the one with the nut is bigger. and then I cut the paper down to around a 3" piece and put it on new grill got it centered and lined up the taped it down, once I had it centered I used the smaller drill bit and drilled all holes, then I went back and drilled the holes for the studs with nuts......now some holes I had to round out a little but it was pretty easy to do when you get over drilling in to a brand new grill.
now here are some pictures
