Actually its not Gutter Guard it is lathe for doing stucco. Its sold as a 2'x8' section for like $2.98 at the Home Depot.So I have plenty left. The Gutter Guard will not fit the 1st GEN TL's as far as I know cause its only 4". And yes that is the color that the material came. Pretty shiny huh?

nice man. looks really shiny. the gutter guards do. just have to get the "Hinged Gutter Guard" at Menards. I tried the ones at Home Depot (those small ones) the hinged ones fit just right.

Your grill looks so good man! It looks like the gutter grill on one of the new Bentley's . I think it looks really sharp! My car is the same color. I have been really bull shi**ing on doin this. But now I am definately goin to home depot..........Are you gonna put the A in the middle. I think that would make it look even better...

Yeah I think I will cut it out and put the "A" on when I get around to it. I was Bull shi**ing for a while too but I got bored and just went and got all the materials to do it.

My thumbs hurt cause I used them to bend and shape the material. Its sharp. I finally got enough brains to use the handle of a set of pliers to finish it up.

Tips? Don't use your thumbs! Nah for reals...its kinda hard to explain. Just take your time, cut out the piece. Trim...measure up, try to bend and shape, trim...just take your time.
