Fiberglass, my grill is almost done finally.
Let's just pretend I didn't grow up, or you're going to be terribly disappointed.

I'm planning to do something to my front grill and I don't want a 'cheap' grill like mesh grills.


i don't think the mesh grills look "cheap" at all, i think it's the most tasteful... :roll:

like krawzyazn already said, photoshop is one thing, actually making it is another :wink:

I made mesh grills for my 3 previous cars ;)

I want something different

This time I want to do something harder to do and 'stock looking'

I know, photoshop is one thing, doing it it's something else.. Now I just need to get a spare grill to do it in case that I completely mess up the grill :)

well.. i love all the ideas.. but the thing tat actually caught my attention is actually the bottom grill /w mesh.. how much did that cost? b/c i'm planning to do the same thing but i have absolutely no idea on how to do it.. i'm sure cutting it is easy.. but how did u put the mesh in? can i just wet sand it and spray the TY1550 paint over it /w a clear coat? or tat's gonna look retarded?

yea.. so most important thing is.. how much to put in or how did u put the mesh in..?? :-P thanx..
