Wow that would look awesome in chrome, unpainted. Subtle hint to betray the sleeper. :)

Nope ... his MM is the same size as the rest. I've seen it.
Only one thing missing on the grille skull ...... those LED eyes that glow red. :up:
Next best thing to badgeless. Gawd I hate that "waterfall" emblem.

Nice to see others doing something about the unattractive waterfall emblem. I'll keep the rear but very happy I changed mine to something more my style.
Loving the skull and the red, looks great!

Thanks Charlie - I never would have thought of it!!!

You mean THESE exhaust tips? Could just name them "Zack" and "Dom". ;)

Thank You All!
Retro car culture is the way I was heading (have been heading).
Nitrous purge in the nostrils Joe and I will wind up putting the rest of the motor in the trunk when it blows up! 116k miles is too late for something like nitrous but it's nice to dream!
If I can get around the temperature at the tips I would like to light up the rear skulls - something to keep me busy from now until June.
Charlie, you win the contest for naming the "twins" on the tailpipes (before it even got started!) The left one is Zack & the right one is DOM!

The skull mod looks sharp.
Maybe I will attempt this for my trunk emblem as I have a badgeless grill.
Krytin, where did you get the skull emblem from?
Also, what did you use to attach the skull to the emblem? Epoxy?

At PEP Boys in the ricer isle!! I have the maching skull in full form for a Brody Knob. The front profile comes w/double sided body molding tape on it but I removed that when I was installing the red LEDs in the eye sockets.
Also, what did you use to attach the skull to the emblem? Epoxy?
I was going to use epoxy before the addition of the LEDs but went w/clear silicone instead just in case I wanted to make any changes down the road.
I hope that helps.
They also had some of the tribal style skulls as well as the Devil like this:

In most States you would get stopped if you had red light facing forward on your ride.
It a good idea. But you know as well as I do some LEO would give you a hard time about
the red.
I have an ImpalaSS that had a red bowtie on it, wasn't liie up but they were making them
and some who bought them had trouble. Saw that on the Impala SS Forum, which I am Still a member.
Would also look good on a Hearst Those guy complain of the same trouble so they only us them in the show field.

I'm pretty sure it's that way in all states - it is in NY. White or amber facing front and white or red facing rear. It has a disconnect/plug in the harness but I'm waiting to see how anal they want to get.

Some will break your B alls for it trust me. Jersey is the same way.
When I lived in Brooklyn the city would break them.
They need to keep there numbers up.
I was driving a Gov. owned P71 unmarked with Lights on and got pulled over, had two prisoners in the rear seat. Was the PA cops I needed to get through the Lincoln tunnel.
as I started to try to move after exiting the tunnel, that is when I got pulled over. My partner and I showed him our tin, told him about the two in the back seat. He step back and said proceed. Thank you very much. We had a long haul to Petersburg VA and I wanted to Move fast.
