    Thank you! :) It's just aluminum mesh that I form fitted and then I did the custom TRD paint myself this last summer! It prolly took way longer than I'd have liked it to, but I get great compliments on it, so it must have been worth it! ;)

    Do it, man! It's not hard at all! The heardest part was bending/forming it to fit right! lol It really hurts your hands, so be sure to wear gloves! But if you're just going black, then you can't mess it up. Just be ready to put a LOT of time into forming it since it doesn't just work the first time! ;) And be very very OCD about it!

    To hold it in place are just these little clips with sharp "teeth" on them, so they bite down and stay in place. You can get them at a hardware/automotive store I believe.
    My summary: Form the mesh, paint the mesh, secure mesh w/ clips! It's that easy!!! Just very time consuming.
