OK...you have to build more and sell them, become a vender please! I've thought about this many times but with the way your's look...I'd rather buy some from you.

Nice!

you missed the spot inside the rotor, otherwise looks nice especially if it's real and doesn't block air like the fake stock one

Did you cut out the plastic fake bumper grill first?

Doesn't looks like he cut out the grille. I've seen these done with just the mesh over the plastic. It could be just my eyes though.

Phony plastic grille = ricey.

Phony metal grille over stock ricey plastic grille = ricier!

Guys, It seems that people are seeing that the grille gives the impression that the rear end is lower to the ground which is the effect I was hoping to achieve. I don't know why Mazda started the paint so high in the rear. This grill gives the rear a more aggressive look to cars approaching from behind. Believe me, I am noticing more looks while I am driving. I am using galvanized steel and coating it with chrome to match the center rotor symbol. If people are interested, let me know and I will try to figure a way to make some and sell them. They are time consuming but if enough people are interested, I will find a way to make them. Any comments or questions?

I think it looks great (at least from the distance in the pic).

The grille looks great!! Let me know if you start selling them, I will definitely be interested.

Was it an easy process of making them?

looks good, I think a shot of it with more light would be better though.

I think it looks pretty classy from what I can see there, for some reason it makes me think of the front grill on the range rover sport.
