Photo'* are hacked. Camera is screwing up badly.
I started this outta bordem.lol. Girlfriend was bothering me so I told her I needed time with the car.LMAO. Wish I had the camera for the look on her face. Was kinda like this I am configuring the bottom the best I can. The pieces I got were not long enough to fill in with one piece. The house stanks of epoxy. Almost passed out applying it. This stuff is strong. Got it from a body shop it'* made for filling metal holes to retap.

yep sat there at the kitchen table with this:


Took about 20 minutes each to hack away. I used some tip snips conformed it to the shape and cut out for the hood release. Threw on the epoxy on the places where the mesh made contact with the grille and put it in place. It was fairly simple excpet for the little pieces of plastic that went every where while sawing. I need to get my sander out and hit the parts where some of the old grille stayed. Fairly simple except breathing in the fumes.lol. Overall good project.

I would have to recommend it to anyone. Failry simple especially if you have a better tool then the hacksaw blade I had. All my tools were out but did the job just as good with if done with the air saw. Only cost me a few bucks and a trip to the Depot.
