06-08's (or any other) version painted black or any other color would work out great, saves anyone the hassle of having to get their own mesh and measuring it out if they simply don't want to haha.

I think the RAM idea looks cool if it were black and subdued. Kinda like "hey look in your mirror...if you dont get outta my way, you can read whats gonna happen to you"

Jusjay has done a diy on his grill, not to that extent, but using gutter guard. I'm thinking about doing it myself.

i really like the idea with the dodge....it does look like the raptor, but better. now my idea, though some work would be needed....would be to take your mesh...and take a 2x4 and fold the mesh where the letters are to have it sunk into the engine bay like an inch and have 1.5" deep letters made. not sure if you could find them online, but i have custom plastics shop about a mile from my house where im sure they could make some DODGE letters that are say 6" tall by 4.5" wide and 1.5" deep....paint it all flat black.

Thats exactly what Im talking about...maybe have some leds behind to light it up at night, subtle glow....It could be done and Im sure itd look good, itd just take some tlc and alot of extra time
