My simple Grill build

So I have wanted a Satoshi since I became a member of this site. Well, I read enough builds that I thought I could tackle it. This will be short and simple, partly because I did a thin lip so I could put lights behind it soon and partly because I did not take a lot of pictures.

This is what I started with today. Stock grill.


Using a dremel, I cut out the inside part that I no longer wanted and measured 1/2" around, shaved it and filed it smooth.


Got the mesh measured and started securing it to the plastic in two different ways. I used left over pieces to make angles and secured it with screws into the plastic and where I couldn't do that I used zip ties.


I attached my FJ emblem I bought from a fellow member and painted the inside of the truck frame and radiator with high temp flat black. I really like the way it turned out and think it will be even sharper once I get the lights behind it.



I did the triangles also, all with zip tie attachments.


Not too bad for my first major mod. Had a buddy with lots of experience helping with ideas so everything went well!

Enjoy.

 

Nice!

 

Nice job!

 

very nice and clean, I like

 

Thanks Guys!

 

Nice grill! I particularly like the Steeler emblems throughout the picture!

 

Thanks Craig! I was actually waiting for a bunch of shit for it!

 

I was going to say that's the only thing I don't like!!!!! Go Cowboy 's!!!

 

Now that's more like the TW I have come to know and love!

 

No way! Fom where I'm sitting it looks like a quality build.

 

I think he was talking to the other Craig about the steelers thingy

 

Lol... Yes she was!

 

But thanks anyways!

 

sorry

 

what did you use to cut out the middle section and where did you get the mesh from?

 

Have to agree. Go Cowboys!!!


Where did u find the mesh at??

 

Not bad for a female steelers fan.


JK, nice job really from a browns fan. Even though they suck and have been dismantled AGAIN I am still a fan and not a bandwagoner.

 

Looks great for a first mod!
