$5 bucks and 1/2 an hour. What a nice mod!!!!

 

JMO but I think it'll look better if its painted black

 

It might, but this gutter guard stuff is really easy to bend...I don't think paint would stick to it very well and if it did, it would chip like crazy. Plus, it looks much better in person...I have to get a new Digicam, my little Olympus is getting a bit outdated!!!

 

Nice work

DOM

 

Looks Good.

 

The reason why I say that is because PhiTL has had his painted since last year and it still looks great. the silver kinda looks cheap. like i said JMO. what ever floats your boat

 

After I read this thread today I decided to get off my lazy arse and do mine too. It was so easy, I can't believe I never did it before.

 

mine is black

 

Have any pics of your black grill?

tmk70 - looks nice, but take out the bar!

 

The bar holds the "A" logo....I can't be without that!!!


Thanks for the compliments, guys. The silver looks great in person, not cheap-looking at all, although I can see how that could be derived from my crappy pic.

 

You have to come to Jersey now to do my grille.

 

OK, Infamuz...you're on. Just get us tickets for the 5th and final game of the Eastern Conference Finals!!!

 

I think the "A" actually connects to some black plastic. The chrome bar just goes around the symbol. I'm pretty sure you could take it off and still connect the A, but I don't know what it would look like with that missing, I didn't try it.

Here's a pic of mine

 

can someone tell me how they did this ?

 

That material will not last long and get dented very easy. Use the other gutter guard, the one with hinges. You can remove the chrome "wing" and it will look a lot better.

Check mine out.

Dude...where did you get that stuff???? I couldn't even find the stuff I used at Home Depot...I had to go all over creation and ultimately found it at a Ma and Pa ACE Hardware. Point me where to get it and I will be there immediately. Sans wing is the way to go, that looks spectacular!!!

 

anyone try a grill like the denali's. it's a solid sheet with evenly spaced holes. looks nice. wonder if it'll restrict air flow too much though.

 

SilverKnight,
I used your instructions to do mine, and used the same gutter guard.


Is this the stuff you were talking about above, or is it some other new stuff you found?

 

here it is

 

You can take out the bar and leave the A in, i did on my TL

pretty old pic, I moved the license plate down lower since it

 

man I really need to take some new pics, can't believe how old these are

 

i just did mine on my 3.0 this weekend it cost me $3.41 and took me about 11/2 hours.....looks good...

 

I wonder how it would look if I painted the gutter guard white?

 

bnavarro - looks nice, but I woulda kept the A

how do u guys think black mesh would look with my gold trim?

 

i get mix reviews about it. some say keep it and some say add the A. i like people guessing what i have. i'm thinking about shaving the emlems in the back.
