I curse your name, Scott, for all the time I have spent getting this grill looking good. I'm getting close. A couple more rounds of clear and I'll be good. Here's a preview:

looks hot Max! yea, it requires quite a bit of perfecting as with most body work. since i was a noob and didnt know how to work with the stuff before, it took awhile. after some time though, you get the hang out it and it gets easier.

Bondo Fiberglass Repair Kit. It was somewhere around $10 or $15 at Pep Boys.

Max - your grille looks hot as hell!!!

Anyone know if there are "stock" looking grilles available out there with the emblem already removed? I really don't want to modify my grille (in case I want to put it back on when/if I sell)... plus i'm crazy lazy :D

Thanks.

And depending what your willing to pay, and if I can buy a spare grille, I may be making a couple of these to sell. Just depends on what people are willing to pay for it. PM me if you're interested and if it would be worth my time to do it.

Thanks
Scott

let me know how much. just have them ship their stock grill out to you then you ship them a debadged one. take all the grills you get and keep recycling them out to people.
