Satoshi Mesh/Paint

So I ordered a new grill from parts geek and am planning on doing the satoshi with it. Ill be buying all of my stuff and hardware from lowe's probably tomorrow. Does anyone know if they sell any type of mesh that i could use there? Or should i just use the grill craft? and another thing, I was thinking about painting the grill myself with dupli-color. What are your opinions of this? Or should i take it to a shop and have it professionally done, and what are the normal price ranges of getting a grill color matched?

 

i would have it professionally done. but maybe because i think it would hold up to hitting birds and stuff. lol i hit dirts ALLOT!! this year i have hit like 6 or 7. and ran one over.

 

I'm 39 and have never hit or ran over a bird, please let me know how you are doing this so I can adjust my driving habbits.

 

hahahaha. well some times i will speed up or slow down. and some times it’s just a dumbass bird that is to slow or flies in the me. in a little over 2 years i have hit like 15. lol plus the one i ran over when it was eating a dead raccoon.

 

PM HomerTaco

He runs a Satoshi making service, and I think he might sell pre-cut mesh for the DIY-ers. Just a thought

 

I got my mesh for my Satoshi from homer.. then used OEM black trim paint. Just cleaned it, and sprayed. It has held up for the last 6 to 7 months. The black trim paint is awesome. matches any black trim on any vehicle. You can get It from any auto parts store.

 

Fixed.







Dood, you need a door gunner

 

priceless rep to you

this^^^^^^^^^^

 

i know but i feel like lowes, home depot, or menards would have something cheaper

 

I'd just rattle can if I were you. Mines been done for over 2 years now and there is only a few small chips of where rocks have hit it.

 

yes they do its all the same id say...
good luck

 

As long as its not a chrome sanded down, go with a duplicolor and nice light coats. Take your time, do not rush AT ALL... you'll regret it
