Gen 4.5 DIY TRD Style Mesh Grille Installed w/ Pics

[PortugalFocus]

After a bit of procrastinating I finally completed it.

It's pretty simple, it's an OE Camry grille cut up and some mesh siliconed in behind it. I painted the mesh flat black with two coats of clear. The grille was originally chrome. I scuffed it down with a green Scotch Brite pad to remove the glossy finish, then two coats of primer, 4 coats of flat black and three coats of clear. I think it looks pretty good IMHO.

At first when I installed the finished grille you could see the horn, condenser and other components behind it, I went and gave it a quick coat of rattle can black now it looks nice and clean behind the grille.

Let me know what you guys think. Pu next are some JDM style amber corners.

Any close up shots? I think it may look better if the frame of the grill was colormatched with the car. Looks good though.
