I really like it! I've thought about trying to do that to mine. How'd you accomplish it? It looks really professional!!

Looks pretty good, I like how it ties in with the hood scoop. Are you going to leave the R/T emblem off or add it back on? -Rob

I'm waffling on the R/T badge, it looks good without it but it would look good with it I need to paint the badge because it's all pitted.

It wasn't bad Dave but it took longerthan I wanted because I changed directions several times before settling intoa plan. After pulling the grill and taking the two pieces apart the honeycomb that you see on the normal grill is in 4 sections, flexible plastic material. I used the dremel with a thin cutting wheel to slice the 4 sections out flush with the outside frame. <= really hard to describe. I cut a section of grill for each of the sections leaving plenty of spare. I pealed out several strands of the grill on all 4 sides so there was roughly 1” of non braded strands sticking out. I drilled a small hole about every 3” and pushed a strand through it and bent it on the opposite side. The stands that were not used in holes I trimmed to fit.
