Default Ghetto buddy club grill mod

this is my great mod done in an extremely ghetto way, but it seems to work and hopefully it will hold.

things i needed:

lots of metal clips (pics below)
lots of zip ties
3 stock lower grills
box of fiberglass kit

this is where it started out



what the clips looks like fiberglassed on:




the bottom grill already had clips so they are a little different.

okay next came zip ties onto each clip of the grills:







some were really hard to get to like this one:



then came the side vents, this is where i had to cut one of the grills in half so it would look like this:



and then that is zip tied on as well:




after everything is zip tied it looks like this:



and then front is put back onto the car:

That looks clean man. Ghetto methods usually work out good, and that goes for alot of stuff..some including duct tape!

That is soooooooo hoooot! I think that looks so much better the cheap mesh that most body kits come with. Good Job!
How much did three stock lower grilles cost you? Seems expensive not ghetto.

He doesn't run stock, I'm sure the gap bugs him if he puts that much effort into his car...
