regarding the mesh, i try to get another mesh. now we have use the same size like the jaguar xjr mesh.

its not planed to make the grill in chrome. i can offer a painting option maybe.

Sounds good Tino, Body color paint option would be great also.

That is a great looking grill Tino. I definitely think it would look much better with smaller mesh though.

Looks great tino, what ever you do don't get rid of the middle bar, I think it looks great. As far as mesh you can use Jaguar XJR mesh or there is a beautiful mesh from 1930 Lagonda. If you see this Lagonda mesh you will know what I mean. Best mesh ever made.

Great work!

here is another side view. so you can see that the mesh comes out more compare to the first version or any other grille you have seen.

Tino, I just saw this picture!!! This is utter perfection man! Don't change this. Me buy now!!! LOL.

I think body matching paint, rather than chrome, would look great of the frame. Can anyone try to photo shop both to see which looks best?

The middle bar comes up to the center rib on the hood, looks good!

Why do you bother speaking; you are an utter annoyance.
