Well after a buddy of mine bashed my front end in, I got it fixed and asked the shop to put the old grille, grille surround, and emblem in my trunk since they were replacing it. I decided to make a custom grille like a did a few years ago on a Mazda that I had. I went to walmart and purchased a large sheet of aluminum mesh and cut it to fit and spend a couple hours bending and trimming to fit in perfectly. After about 20 cuts on my hands and a few hours of work I think it turned out pretty well. The main goal was to look good and be able to see the hella horns through very well. I went ahead and through some plastidip on it for the time being. black for the grille and white for the emblem. I used white floral wire to attach the emblem which worked pretty well. Now all I have to do is switch the insert over to the good surround and it will be done. Here is a test fit with the old surround.
is it just me or is the picture so small even at full size? kind of hard to tell what you did
I noticed that but I cannot seem to make it any bigger. I emailed it from my phone to get it on my computer and I can open it up on my computer full size and it looks just fine. I do not know what happened in between here and there.
Okay. I resized it, enhanced it as best I could and increased the brightness. This is about the best I can do. I will be switching the grille surrounds tomorrow and actually installing it so I will try to get a better picture then as well.

You must work for CSI with those crazy enhancing skills.

Ha. All I know how to do is resize and click the enhance button. I messed with every edit option photobucket has but not much made a difference. I will get good pictures tomorrow.
One last attempt to get a better picture from what I have. If this doesn't work just check back tomorrow afternoon and I will have it actually installed with multiple pictures. This is straight from my phone on the app instead of sending to my email.

Looks good. But it would be cool if we can see it more
last pic looks good for what you did. should even out the horns and it would look cleaner (driver side)
I know. I think the problem is that in order to center them both I had to use a different hole on the passenger side. The holes are even but the passenger side one hits a lip so it stick out more and looks higher. I think I am going to grind down that lip and it should even out.
