Default grill modification update

Well.....I was going to go other routes, but this became the quickest and cleanest look for the mustang I believe.

Just took the grill off and secured the wire mesh to the back of the grill with small screws.

I like it. Usually wire mesh can be ricey, but this is well placed, clean, and consistent with the honeycomb grill. Also looks as a nice end point for the stripe on your hood.

What kind of wire mesh did you use? Where did you pick it up from?

Got it from Sears Hardware. it is wire mesh that is made as gutter covers. they are about $2 a piece, and you only need one.

Just molded it to the back of the grill (after it was removed), and trimmed off the excess

I'm on the fence... I'm not sure I would do it to my car but I think it looks alright. If nothing else, it's different, which is cool.
