Finally!!! Project Complete!!!

Resonator removed, Mesh Grill, AND cleared corner headlamps!!! put my bumper back on and everything!

materials to make a mesh grill. Sheet of mesh (home depot $1.50), spray paint and primer ($3.50 each), metal cutting scissors ($15), wrench, and screwdriver. Oyeah, DEFINITLY gloves!! i was stupid and cut up my hands. im bleeding from 4 fingers and have bandages all over them.


paint and trim away. trace the black cover of the grill.


put the grill in place, screw the "A" on, screw the whole grill together, pop back onto hood and its BEAUTIFUL!


here's a picture of my corners cleared out. it was raining ALL last night and all day today, and NO MIST!!!! I GLUED IT PROPERLY THE FIRST TIME! i love the new look of my front.

i have japanese brand bulbs so i dont really know what american brand looks good. for glue, go for silicones.

for tools, look for my other thread from yesterday, titled "Resonator Removed, Cleared Headlamp". there will be pictures of what it looks like when you remove it and what you have to do to remove it. you'll see what you need afterwards.

take some more pics of your grill from far away so we can see it better...looks good though, but isnt it illegal to not have the yellow turn signal lights?

Ahh nevermind. I was wanting some amber clear bulbs. Wasn't really wanting the blue. Just took my lights out tonight so I could get an early start on it in the morning.

well the bulb color is blue. but when you turn it on and use the blinkers it shines bright white.

it only took me two hours to do the headlamp part. its not too bad and the results are incredible. that's if you used the proper materials and glued everything back the right way
