    Hey guys, just wanted to get a feel for interest on this grill. I have been making these grills for a while now for friends and just wanted to see what you guys thought of them. It is like a satoshi, the way I would do it is just as shown below. It would be made from a new grill, with a circular mesh, including the triangles, and the specialized Toyota emblem. This is the finished product below rhino lined. I would only offer it rhino lined in this first batch. The price including everything except shipping would be $300. Let me know what you guys think or have any other ideas. I would need at least 10 people to get a batch going. I will get more pictures tomorrow, pm with any questions.

    Hey man, are you still in Davis and do you have mesh? I'd like to make my own satoshi, and I am just looking for the mesh right now...
    If so how much would you charge?
    Thanks!
