Found these on another forum. These are the prototypes that W Body store made. I'm not sure on how I feel about them, they seem kinda cheap (and are priced as such). I'm thinking about making some race-mesh type grilles, but am having a hard time finding a set of grilles to work with without getting them from the dealer. I don't want to take mine apart and F something up.

I would like to see a mesh grill with hexagonal holes like what the GXP has but in stainless or powder coated black.

Cool

Hell, just paint them...i have the the wbody store grilles enroute but this is a quick compliment....and i designed custom evacs too....this is proto type, and the bottom fascia inlets...

the evacs have been redone since...im going to use the trim i used for my customs for the wbody store evacs if i decide to stray away from my design...its a lot tighter pattern..and the evacs on wbody store have horrible zip tie hang on them....the fronts arent too bad though...

i get a lot of compliments Panther...it looks real good...I have slvr...but i would recommend matching paint or going just a tone or two lighter....its okay to accent on the grille components I think...
