    Crome. All the black is painted at this point, and the mesh is installed. I used 3 coats of primer, with a wet sand with 400 grit inbetween, followed by about 7 coats of flat black. :)

    that mesh looks too fine. I'd prefer a tougher, more noticable looking mesh. Just my .02

    These pics dont do it complete justice as i had to use my google phone to take the pics (of course the girl has the good one). I will be posting better pics tonight after i get my camera back. I love my new mod and let me say thank you chris4x4 a million times. One of the nicest guys around and a great handyman. He did the best work and put a bunch of time and work into this. I owe him huge. Thank you chris. I will take more pics later and buy my trd logo to put on there today. Thanks 1000000000000000000 times
