do you really want a comment...its looks bad, if you are going to put your front plate on their dont put on a grill, if you are not putting on your front plate dont do a grill either but if you do make sure the grill is a full one.

It's purely experimental. Thanks for outside perspective.

Yeah I might. It looks a lot better in person and I still like it. May keep it on a few weeks to see if I get tired of it.

This reminds me when someone vyniled their Rx-7 tail lights because they didn't want to paint them properly............ no one liked it, and I don't see this catching on. Sorry, but it looks pretty bad. Like the geeky kid who smiles with braces on high school picture day.

The braces comments were too funny. I think the dual top and bottom bars look like lips. Like a pokemon robot or something. Oh well, I may end up doing a 3 bar horizontal afterall.

Hey, if it weren't for guys like me - we wouldn't know good when we saw it. haha
I think I'm actually gonna try some other creative designs before going with the 3 bar since I have plenty of wheel molding leftover.

what are you trying to accomplish? cause you succeeded in making it look bad. just don't even try the 3 bar thing.
