Why didnt GM just make the Heritage Grill Standard?

The Heritage grill makes the front look 80% better so why didnt gm just make that grill stock to begin with? Is it more expensive to make or install? Would add a bigger price tag? Wasup wit dat?

It is all in personal preference, you opinion is different then others, I don't believe that it looks better, it still looks good but I prefer the ZL1 grill over all of them.

They are both nice grills imo. However I decided to stick with the stock grill.

Stock grill looks great with a splitter and aftermarket hoods.

Heritage grill for everything else!

At one point in time I wanted the heritage grill too, but with so many people getting them, I don't want one now. So if everyone had the heritage grill on their camaro coming standard from GM, then everyone would be looking at replacing it so they have a unique camaro.
