I couldnt wait for it to finish drying, and was bored with waiting, so i figured that i would come on here and post my progress !

Seems everyone is going JDM these days. So the kinda person i am, i had to be difrent, so i went and got a hacksaw, and some bondo, and some mesh screen, and figured i would custom fab my own Grille ! it actually came out quite well. And its still USDM :) Let me know what u think !

looks good man... i still need to find out what kind of grille mesh i used... still can't find it anywhere... just have to be cautious with painting the silver mesh black, the bugs tend to take the paint off quite frequently
