    Some guys from another thread were asking about making these so fugured I'd make a thread on how to do it.
    First take your factory grill or order one and get the center of it. When you are looking down at the grill and you see the peices on both sides going to the back of the grill do not cut those because that's where you will bolt it up to.

    The mesh has 2 options you can choose gloss black or silver similar to lumar mist both are powdercoated.

    When you get the mesh put it on the grill and mark where you need to drill the holes. After you have marked them drill 4 3/16 inch holes and set the mesh on the grill and bolt it up. After take the mesh off and paint your grill shell whatever color you want, wait on it to dry, bolt the mesh up then bam you made your mesh grill
    If enough people were interested I may make a couple.

    I wish there was just a black mesh replacement grill instead of modifying your stock grill. If there is I haven't seen one.

    What kind of price would we be talking? With starting on a new grille sourced by you.
