Default Made my own Mach 1 grille insert - pic

Ok, before you think I'm cheap or cheesy by doing this, I work as a designer and enjoy tinkering with things like this, so instead of paying the $80+ for the Mach 1 grill delete, I made my own out of lexan that was cut from a pattern, heated to 350 degrees in the oven and then held in place for 5 mins to cool and form correctly. I then made a bracket for the pony out of aluminum bar stock and bolted it in for a super clean look. What do you guys think?

Well, I would be glad too, but I can't form it correctly now since mine is installed with the thick 3M double sided tape.
