Grill mesh inspired by TTschwing ... a test fit>>>
TTschwing's mesh grill project got me thinkin... and I had my eye on this brushed grill stuff we had at work.. I got it 50% off. Its a totally different style mesh... but in the same spirit of things
<b>notice!!! all I did was shove the stuff up in there from behind JUST to see how the silver would look. There was no 'fitting' the stuff.... hence why its all lopsided with gaps and its hung up on that bracket on the bumper and the horn so its not flush... just wanted to point that out... I'm just checking the color!</b>

I thought the raw mesh actually looked good with the rave green, but its split on the vortex... half like silver and half say yuk.. nothing but black only..
I think silver looks fine on brightly colored cars...
what do you think? Maybe I should just go ahead and install the stuff already.... I can always remove it for paint later!

Hey Dani! Looks great!.......>>>
Remember though, that style mesh will block a considerable amount of air. Keep an eye on temps and such. If you want to look at other mesh options go here and request their catalog. All kinds of patterns and types and they'll cut to your order!
