My Satoshi Grill write-up

thank God for this write up, best one ever. my roommate and I are gonna do this tomorrow and it answered all my questions!

 

you didnt have to make the extra cuts for the hood release. you can still open the hood from the center of the hood right above the grille. just move your hand left after you pull the hood up a bit. i found this way to be faster at opening the hood anyways

 

I know. I didn't make extra cuts. I made plans too but didn't.

 

Get a spare grille from Certifit to experiment with. That way, if you F it all to heck, you still have the original one to put back on I called on a price for a spare last week, and it was like $42 or something. Of course, you'll have to paint the whole thing and if you don't know someone in a body shop that could be expensive....

 

hey how did u manage to get the lights to drop down so far. i just got the hella 500 driving lights but the bolts only go so far how did u do that. thanks

 

I bought a different length bolt at Lowe's

 

awesome post, I'm gonna be doing that to my taco here soon.

 

about how much did all that cost?

 

subscribed, so i can do this mod as soon as its warm outside.... damn canadian winters

 

If you know anybody who does drywall/masonry work, they use a mesh that's almost identical to what the grill craft grills are made of.

Places like McMaster-Carr carry the mesh also.

 

Its a stucco mesh... I wouldnt use it. It can rust too easily and its not strong enough.

 

what do you recommend ?

 

customcargrilles.com has all the mesh you need. Great mesh, Powdercoated, And its pretty cheap!

 

Am I crazy or don't I say this in my write-up? Thanks for backing me up lents.
