So I was @ Lowes looking @ all the different kinds of mesh & I decided I wanted something different from all the other mesh grilles out there & decided on some bug netting lol. but here it is, I like it, although some of u prolly wont. Also for a lil something extra I painted the area behind the Acura symbol red.

 

it looks...ok ive never been a fan of silver mesh, but why did you paint that red?

 

Interesting, might be hard to keep clean, but I like it better than many I've seen.
I hate the ones with the Acura symbol removed.
I guess it's not easy to put the screen behind the silver wing too.
maybe remove the wing??

 

Exactly what I was thinking.

I'm not too sure it I like it. Take a pic of it from a bit further back so we can see the full front.

 

I painted it red because I wanted to & I like it. Plus it matches the calipers. The wing sits a bit further back than the rest of the grille so it'd def be a bitch to rig that somehow. Here's a cpl more pics, & yes the car is uneven cuz it's jacked up. I'm on wheel #3 or refinishing them. Filled in the curb rash w/ bondo, sanded, then painted. If u guys wanna see that I can post a pic too. =)

 

Oh & yeah I was thinking it might be hard to clean but I touch the car up pretty much every day I drive it so hopefully that will keep it from becoming a hassle. Plus, it can always come off quite easily.

 

Not bad, I don't like the red though.

 

nice air freshener

 

hehe, I nd to get that outta there.

 

Cut the screen off the red, looks wrong covered up.

 

I like the mesh, its pretty nice, im just not too sure about the red. Def get points for creativity.

 

its not bad...ive seen Far worse. +1 for DIY

 

If I cut the mesh out in front of the red the whole thing would fall apart. The symbol is held on by 2 screws in the middle & theres no way the symbol would hold it down. I knew you'd all preach I dont like the red, I don't like the red...

 

But for the ones that said they do like it, thx. U can never beat DIY.

 

i gots nothing good to say...so ima say nothing about your DIY other than glad you like it.

 

Well I don't like it at all. There's too much silver bling on the front end. The red paint makes it look riced.

 

I dont think it looks that bad. It pritty much looks stock. But yeah the red got to go.

 

Well in any event thx for looking & giving ur opinions guys.

 

Quite unique! I kind of like it. The red isn't all THAT bad. I think it would look nice as silver like the car itself.

 

hahaha it looks pink to me
now put a screen on the lower grille

 

the bug netting looks good to me

 

I kinda like this idea. It's not the best looking mesh out there, but definitely original and great DIY job. You need to do the lower grille also. Good job!

 

is there a storm door behind it?

its def different

 

I wasn't ragging on the red, just looks wrong covered over.

Cutout the red area and maybe superglue the mesh to the edges of the A symbols surround. THe symbol screws down if I remember.
Just ideas, that's what modding is all about. I know it's tricky putting mesh in the grill.

Good luck tinkering. got chickens in there?? j/k

 

Lmao Nope, no chickens, just a bunch of horses. I was thinking if I redid it I might just paint it silver or something under the Acura symbol. The red makes the Acura symbol stand out tho & I don't mind people being sure to see that. Someone said it looks pink but it doesn't @ all in person otherwards i'd of scrapped the red idea instantly. If I used something thicker & stronger for the mesh I could def cut out around the symbol a lot easier. Might just do that if I get bored next wknd just to see.

 

Your car has a nice gangster lean to it I love the DIY. Definately something to think about more. I've been wanting to do it myself for a while, minus painting the "A" symbol.

 

It was actually very easy. With that mesh being skinny I was able to strech it out, screw it all bk together then take a hobby knife to the excess. Literally took me a whole maybe 10 minutes. & yes it's a gangsta lean, my car be pimpin' !
