    Hot damn! That looks great!

    I think maybe 4 LED's would also look pretty good. Might have to do that on mine. I'd like to figure out a way to wire them to either run normally (just consistently on), or also hook them up to a strobe kit to use on the construction site. I think that'd be a sweet way to light up the safety lights!

    Yea I bought 4 just in case, but thought three looked best. I wanted the ends a little closer originally, but the mounts for the grill get in the way. I think I like how it turned out better than a few in the DIY mod thread for this particular mod. As they did them closer together in the middle.

    You wire them into the parking lights (the furthest away top orange light) and they're on all the time, except the DRL. My knob has three settings. DLR, regular, and headlights. They're on for the main two, but not in the off position where only the DLR lights are on. Super easy. A little dremel, some wiring, and shrink-tube to do things right.

    I e been watching this thread for a LONG time(3yrs) Is there still a long wait for the grills? I finally get my truck back from government storage next month and I'd like a satoshi deep grill.

    Sorry I wasn't on TW much over the weekend and missed your PM. Yours came out good tho, glad you got it all sorted out. :thumbsup: 3 looks better than 4 IMO, and 3 spread out doesn't look bad either

    I'd be much faster with turnaround if this was a full time gig... As it is I've been keeping this up part-time for nearly four years now.
    There are other options for custom grills out there & a few who have tried to copy my work/designs.
    You may get a grill quicker from someone else however there is no one that has more experience than me.
    I'm not trying to toot my own horn, I'm just stating a fact after +400 grills and countless mesh kits.

    I prefer the current process because I personally build each grill myself by hand. This is not a mass produced item built anonymously in some factory it's a hand crafted piece directly for the purchaser to their modification desires.

    I went to school for art but ended up selling sticks & bricks for the big orange box as a career. I love what I do for HD but this work is my own creative outlet and I do it because I love it.

    Yes, the wait is long. I can only say that from the feedback I receive from the TW members who purchase my work it is worth the wait.

    Thank you,
    ~ Craig

    Even though it is a long wait... I do here that the work is legit and that's been over the past 3yrs I've watched about this post. I think I can wait and KUDOS on you for keeping up with the demand and making all of them by hand and not factory process.

    Yea there are some dudes on IG that offer them and commented on a few of my posts. Saw one of them here in Vegas, wasn't very good.

    I'm enjoying Craig's work.

    How many people run lights behind thin lip grill? Is it a tight fit or decent room?
