Default my new grill

here is a shot of my new mesh grill. this grill is 3D, not just a flat sheet of mesh behind the openings. i think these cars were just made for a mesh grill and this design seems perfect to me. i tried a different mesh grill with small openings and it seemed to classy. this one looks like pure muscle to me.

my next project is lowering springs. we will see what it take to lower the back with the trailer tow option and keep it functional. it will be done one way or another.

Looks most excellent! Reminds me of an FBI vehicle.

Hey Tony,
What did you use to black out the lenses, both front and back? How bad is it at night with the lights on? I dig the grill. I've got a SXT with the RT appearance package and I've been contemplating a new grill. I can't decide what I want.

the front headlights have a film on them, the rear i sprayed with VHT Nite-Shades tail light tint. i had film on the tail lights, but i started to get some lift, so i went with the spray. i only put one coat on the rear lights. don't want to go too dark.

i can see fine at night, but it is no where as good as untinted lights. i went with a light (30%) film kit.

as far as my grill goes, some love it, other hate it, and some just want it painted black.

Like very much. Molded style looks great. I emailed matt about any plans with a lower grille, but hasn't answered back.

What is diameter of the mesh? Does it feel solid or does it flex when you push on it?
