Re: new mod

Wow those look really nice! Where'd you get the aluminum? Where did you get the machining done?

Re: new mod

Tinman - I have another question for you. Sorry if my questions sound stupid, but I don't know a whole lot about machining. So if I was to go buy aluminum and take it to a machine shop to have something like this done, what would i have to have? The stock grill (or a CAD-type drawing of it), so they could replicate it? Any info I'd appreciate...

Re: new mod

CAD/CAM file would be great.stock grille is fine too but they'll charge you more to figure out the size and shape.i'll pm you with more info...
