FS: Stock Grills For Satoshi

here is mine done

 

^^ Looks good! I'm painting mine as we speak.

 

thanks

 

Is this the one labeled "black mica" ? Did you paint it or was that the way it came?

 

that was black mica i belive....and i did not do anything to it...but painted the interior flat black....
and i used screws with wing nuts to secure the grill so i can swap it out easy at a later date for diff mesh

 

Right on. was gonna colormatch mine SW, but now I'm starting to think this might look good as is, least it sure does on your rig

 

its not perfect but it will do and to save $100

 

Heres mine...no satoshi. Im not the biggest fan of them.

 

I found it difficult/tricky to mount the face to the body of the grill. Any tips or tricks on doing so?

 

I used a soldering iron to melt the tabs.

 

That looks great! i was on the fence about keeping the grille surround black vs painting silver to match. I really like this! Might consider painting the area by the triangles silver to match, though... Nice job!

 

i love the front of ur truck!!
did u paint the grill to match or is that the black it comes in? does it match?

 

is that a grillcraft???
looks great

 

same here

 

Yea it is. I really really like the black vs. chrome. Ive been looking at black headlights as well, but that might be a bit.

Working on finding time to black out the badges and the wheels.

 

Painted to "match" as close as I could.

 

What mesh did you use?

I ordered this exact grille for my 06' and did the satoshi mod and it fits perfect.
