Looks good, but i liked your first one better. BTW, is that aluminum sheet metal? Nice touch and well excecuted, but did you realize you just cut down cooling by like 10-15%. To nullify that, you could paint the black honeycomb grill silver.

I thought of painting my grill, but that would not do such a great job. Moreover, the honeycombs at the edges of the grill are full, making the final result not so good.

Anyway, I thought about making me differents styles so that I can switch sometime ... it's just some sheet of stainless that I bolted inside of the grill ( But you can't see the bolts outside :D ) !

Yeah, I like the first one that you photoshopped better. This one kinda looks like a jack o lantern...no offense or anything.

i'd have to agree with blue LEDz. if you did something a little different with the inside edges, it would look nicer. :bt: i give you a 8.5 for your effort and creativity. <-- i sound like an olympic judge (and no i wasn't talked into fixing your score) :laugh:

That looks cool... (not trying to ragg) but it looks like its sticking its
tongue out now. Have you thought of making it look like it has
black sharp teeth. You know like a shark... In my mind that would
look cool..

Oh and where did you get the silver eyebrows??

Thanks.

Just to let you know guys that I decided to change the look of my new bottom grill add-on ! I already got tired of it:rolleyes: ... The one that I'm making right now is just like the top grill but a little bit larger. I already put some black tape to have a before-taste, maybe I should put some pics for some advise :D ! I'm also thinking about doing the top grill but upside-down ! Any advise !?

The first one looks nice!

Gaspo August-16th-2002 01:29 PM

Both look nice, but I like the second one more.

[Cruzer] August-16th-2002 02:57 PM

I like the second one... looks like vampire teeth.. just have to
blacken the sides alittle and you have teeth.
