lol well I don't like it, since it is waay too skinny around the edges.... I like the look of a 97 grille with the slats /emblem removed and meshed.

Painting is all about prep work.

If you do a good job prepping, then painting is easy and you'll get good results.

I didn't paint mine and I thought it turned out ok when I put it all together. Just my opinion though...



That eBay one you posted is exactly what I bought.
