anyone have any ideas on how to help me make a custom grill for my 01 tl. Im sick of the plain old black front...i want maybe a chrome or silver color. thanks!

 

paint it to match the car

 

yea...but i have no idea how to even do it. like what to buy to replace the grill i have or how to paint the existing one.

 

ah... too bad you have 01.. or you could've gotten the JDM grille from honda for 02-03

 

I have a 2000 TL and i plan on speed grilling the whole front end. You can buy speed grill on line I'm sure and do it yourself for pretty cheap.

Just an idea for u

 

Use gutter grill from Home depot, Lowe's, or APC.

 

seirously dude, i had no idea how to do it.... but all i did was pop open the hood and took off any screw i felt that was needed to be removed.. i mean its all just common sense and it all just falls into place once u open it.. just expect to spend about 3 hours in total- time includes all cutting taking out putting bak in... just go at it like you know what ur doing.. and everything will work out.. ONE THINg to watch out for, there are gona be 2 screws you wont be able to turn.. A LOT Of people have had this problem its not an unusual thing... what you gota do is burn off (which is what i did) or cutt off the plastic piece that is covering hte screw... so you can eventually see it and then work ur way in.. dont be scared and dont stop what ur doing... trust me its worth it it will look greatt
good luckk

 

its funny how every 3 days a new thread for a grille appears...no one searches anymore?

gutter guard mesh, cut, prime, paint, clear coat, install, done for 99-00 TLs, 01-03 will require more effort eventhough I believe stock grilles on those years look great.
