I did the gutter guard mesh last year, but an accident broke the grill so I took out the original horizontal slats and replaced it with a thick metal sheet (with small punched holes).

Thanks! I actually asked xchang about it before I did it, he doesn't mind starting a trend smile

I like it too. The offset emblem is a cool idea.

The grills pretty cool... But I don't dig the offset emblem........ ??? It just sorda throughs the whole front off.. I would just rather have taken all the way off?? Anyway, Nice job and looks good EVEN with the emblem..

I had the emblem off at first, then tried the offset look. At first I liked it, but recently it started to look "weird" so I took it off again.

The mesh material is some sort of sheet metal and has started to rust a bit (got the piece free from school workshot). I'll sand and paint it soon (when I get a chrome ring to replace the current wrecked one). Any recommendations on colour? I think chrome or silver might be too bright, but I liked the bronzish colour the mesh sheet was originally.
