Default Decided to have front grill painted pics inside

I decided to paint this at alot different cost than a new SLP grill and I think it was a good comprimise. I also ordered 35th Anv. SS grill inserts, I got the P/N and had my brother order them through his dealership. Whatcha think? I have a few friends buying a couple from me as well they like them so much.

See, I would do something like that myself, but here
in Virginia we got that front license plate law thing.

Oh well, better to be safe around Johnny Law,
or you'll end up <img border="0" alt="[guns]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_guns.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[kaboom]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_bomb.gif" />

You can relocate the license plate with the SLP bracket, or you can custom make your own. I like how it looks, too, but I decided to invest in the Wings West grill. Looks good.
