Just wondering what everyone thinks of this. The car isn't lowered so it should be safe for curbs etc. The guy before me removed the fog lights so I wanted to cover those holes and then figured a grill for a Intercooler can't hurt.


Thanks for your feedback

Doesn't look too bad. I am a person who follows function over form. This is one of those cases for me. I think it functions better than it looks.

I would have painted it black, but I dont know how that would look with a silver tone intercooler behind it.

You should get some more picture from different angles, front, sides angled above and below.

I can do that I just have it setting in place right now. I will get some more pic and post them later this evening.
 
How did you fasten it on? Im interested in doing this to hide the IC, i like the more stock look and its the lesser of 2 evils in my opinion. 4$ is alot cheaper than 140$ kits on ebay LOL, i will look into that at home depot

Actually I haven't fastened it yet but Black Widow97 told me a good way by using screws on the bottom and use a adhesive on the top side.


As far as painting it not sure yet I have a little tweaking to do on it because of how hacked up the whole front mount area and fog light area was when I bought the car. I will see what it looks like after that.
 
You might be able to use some kind of rivet to attach it also. About that license plate...do you think it is creating some blockage there? Maybe put it in the windshield or relocate it to the side. Just my 2c. the "grill" looks decent to me, black wouldn't look half bad either.

Ya I thought about moving the plate to the side. Just not sure because that is where the original plate holes are.

I think rivets might work too. I will see what I can come up with.

Could make it easy to remove. Then for the price paint some and see what looks best.
