    I am an idiot because I accidentally made the triangles out of M1 mesh and this in M4... :frusty:

    And this is NOT for sale until I can test fit it. That will not be for a while because I am on vacation next week... :sorry:
    Thank you,

    Anxious to see what the satoshi would look like mounted up and what not.

    More interested in a thin lip, though..

    It really doesn't affect it at all. It's still solid.

    Yeah... I'll reach out when I get back from Florida & we'll meet for lunch and test it out. :thumbsup:
    Thanks Jeff! That TTora thread was a good read. I believe now that the missing mounts will not be an issue. I still need to test fit this before I can comfortably produce them... I have another chrome one that is JDMcQ's and that is already formed - I just need to complete the mesh.
    I also have two in storage in the shop that are set up for color matching. I'll work out a cost on that... It may be higher due to the fact that these are much bigger parts than the 2nd gens they are used to getting from me. :notsure:

    I'm sorry this took so long to release... I've been concentrating on the 2nd Gens so long that I lost track of these... :(

    I also still have that bitch grill I finished - the 95-97.... Still for sale :pout:

    Man looks sick. I'll be ordering a color matched one whenever they are available.

    You are one of many folks that has suggested to me that I expand... I appreciate the support but the truth is that my primary career is not making grills. I would not feel comfortable hireing out the work because then it is not MY grill... I build each one of these with a specific person in mind as they are produced. I do not use computer generated shipping labels I address each item I ship by hand. When someone orders a grill from me they get a product that I made. I know there is a lot of demand and I could do more with assistance. I believe in quality over quantity. :D
