more mesh?

ok, i have a nighthawk black 00 TL w/ a homemade mesh grill. i was considering puttin' in mesh on the front bumper also, but only where the fake fog holes are and not the center. part of me thinks the more mesh the better but another part of me thinks it wouldnt look right if i didnt mesh the center part also. and cuttin out the fake fog holes is a permanent procedure so i dont wanna end up regretting that i did it. jus hook me up w/ some opinions. thanks.

Look in the Gallery section. There are pics of cars in there with mesh custom. Maybe you can get some ideas....:p

Dont do the center, just do the fog holes. Fog holes look nice meshed in my opinion

I did it. It looks really good. It makes your car look more personalized. I didn't do the center just the fog holes. You will like it if you do it. Next project painting the center the same color of the car. Current project working on carbon fiber engine cover and battery and some other touches.

I saw a pic on here at one time when somebody did the center in mesh on a black car, it made it look like it had teeth
maybe on white it would .look better but not on black.

I haven't attempted this myself, but maybe when it gets warmer

well, my TL is black so the fog holes and lower grill already match the only reason i wouldnt mesh the lower grill is b/c i already have piaas in there and i dun think that mesh behind the fog lights would look good, so im only considering applying mesh to the fake fog holes...
