    Thanks Munkee!

    I wont pay that much 350 for the t-rex and $200 sound great for a no bondo, no epoxy, little cutting DIY project that will look good. This product fills the void in the market for no talent ass clowns with a driveway and no tools like me.

    I am in.......HURRY AND TAKE MY MONEY GRILLECRAFT!!!!!!

    I would definitely consider this grill, since it doesn't require bondo or fiberglass. Keep us informed if there is a group buy.


    Is the mesh open enough to put lights behind it and not lose too much light output?

    The mesh is more transparent in real life. Plan on painting all the parts behind the grill black.

    I plan on putting lights back there and don't see it as a problem.

    No Final install pics until the production run is done which is in another 2 weeks.

    Don't worry..I'm smart enough to know who makes the best grills :thumbsup:

    I don't like the fact it's not recessed at all.
