    Default Zr3 on a Grand Prix !!!!!!Now with A pic!!!!!

    2004+ model (the newer style) there is not alot of areas to mount on so i put it just below the bumper inbetween the headlight and license plate. My question is since the front bumper is verry curved. Is it ok to have the heads pointed verry slightly twords the side of the car as in line with the bumper curve or do they have to face exactly forward?

    Ok they are realigned to shoot forward but are they too close to tle plate or perfect where they are?

    nope best to have it pointing directly in front....if you get a hit from a 4 lane hwy you will more than likly miss it...this also applies for a bridge shot.

    that is correct, make sure the heads are straight, I had that problem where my audi front end was producing a optical illusion and the jammer heads were not "correct" as for being straight but they looking straight but they werent. They were off alittle bit but it was soon fixed and its been JTG baby....

    Default zr3 install

    I have a zr3 and they are set back from the front of the grill. We did tests last week and my system did not do as well as another zr3 were the heads were flush with the front of the grill. so flush, square, and level.

    The problem is there is no grill to mount them at so under the bumper is the only area and ite curved pretty well...

    Default 2004 grand p

    I saw the pic on the net and it looked like it had 2 side by side black pie shapes that are squared off at the pointy end. It looks like a grill. If it is, probably the top outer corner of each grill on next to the lights would be the only place. The 04 front looks almost identical the the 05.
