I don't think the little one is looking at the shiny grill. Let me make one suggestion, a hat. :P j/k
Still, very nice mod tho. SVTrodg had done this too and it looks like a sweet mod.

Now paint the surround and the inside of your headlights black to make the new grille pop :)

Look's clean Slim. Good Job.

Nice work man. You've got a decent amount of patience for that type of work.

Not bad, but I'm not really a big fan of gutter guard grills since you can see through them and that big hood latch thing is right there. It's a million times better than when people just stick the mesh overtop of their old grill though..

For a DIY job I think the end result was really good. *Thumbs up*

that looks mint. I really liek the turn out of your car. Just clean

Home depot gutter guard has a nicer mesh design, cheaper, and will last longer than the reactive stuff.
Just an FYI. ;)

Quick question... are you a big fan of Eminem? :)
Looks good, I might have to try this out some day too....

Nice mod though. :)

So how did you get the mesh to stay in? Glue?
Diy Front Grill (56k Make Some Nachos) - Slimsride - 08-11-2006

Nope i just cut the mesh a little bit bigger than the grill part, and actually squeezed it in between the frame and the bezel....if that makes sense

Good work, but i personally find that it cheapens the look of the car.
