    They give you a limit of 10GB of pictures that are inserted using code stuff... i dont know the proper name for it.

    once you go over 10GB of pictures used then they cut it off. so i deleted a few routed pictures

    Tedious. It took me a solid day and a half, probably about 10 hours in total, just because I'm a perfectionist (or tried to be :p) It still didnt turn out perfect but pretty darn good.

    Yup even the video! Haha I kind of took what you did and added my own little twists here and there, disregarded the part about the triangles obviously because my grill is all one piece. But other than that, the whole write-up was very informative and helpful :thumbsup: Thank you sir!
    Now my buddy wants his 4runner's grill done.... We'll see how that one turns out :eek:
