thank you... the emblem was pretty easy to do... i just sprayed the whole v/c then let it dry completely, ten hit it with my angle grinder, then i used a shit load of clear coat on the whole thing...

its not really mesh and defiantly NOT chicken wire... it is actually woven stainless steal... it some sick shit, i had a lil bit left over so i used it there...
i wanted somethin a lil different and ran out of white so was like, i have some red left over...lol rest is history...

Looks good man. Then agian I also think it would go with the car better with a black mesh grill, unless you want it to stand out.
