custom black mesh grille

this mod took me about 3 hours to complete and it isn't exaclty perfect becasue i couldn't figure out how to cut the mesh and get the A back in the grille. what does everyone think?

my friend's a genius... he suggested wire cutters to get thru the mesh and open up the holes for the A. worked perfectly

crappy cell phone pic:

i think it looks way better with the floating A than with nothing

i dont understand doing this mod unless you dremel all of the shit out behind it.. when there is any light on the front you can see the entire stock grill frame.. kind of pointless to me

not a fan of chicken wire overall though.. and yes, "MESH" before anybody thinks it was origionally made for grilles lol

I was going to suggest wire cutters but you figured it out already. Doesn't look that bad.

i really only did this mod b/c i wanted something to do and it seemed pretty cool and cheap too. obviously there are better things i coudl have done to my car, but not for $3 haha

ya, i think it looks much better with the A back on.

and for the wire cutters... no clue why i didnt think of that
