So im looking to add a custom grill to the bottom of my 8 near the front on both sides of the front accent. What is teh best material i can get to use for a grill? im looking to go to either home depot or lowes for this purchase...material and range of prices would be greatly appreciated.
which metal wriing would be best for a ghetto/cheap grill yet very nice appearance? i would like it to be black just like the above stock grill.

 

Rx8strakes.com sells a screen fx kit. I purchased it from another member who was selling

Seems very durable and legit non-"ghetto"

Price is not that bad.

they have a 36" by 6"
or 36" by 12"

get the larger for 25 bucks seems like an affordable grill

 

true that but i was thinking even cheaper than that lol like 10$ n under... i saw a guys car who did nothing but mods from home depot and only spent liek 50$ for a buncha **** that looked extremly legit

 

Modifications... is this hondatech? lol

 

que?

 

i think what he is referring to is that a majority of the users on this site wouldnt fab up something from home depot.....it seems to cheapen the look of the car with "honda type" of mods......most people will go the extra mile and actually save for decent mods

 

oo haha. well rite now im not getting no hours at my work to pay for this stuff therefore I'm looking for cheaper ways to get the legitiment look. i dont want no honda cheap **** that looks like ****. just lookin for a cheaper escape so to speak.

 

dont bother then because temporary always looks just that.....

 

Those two terms dont belong in the same sentence,,, If you really want a legitimate look just be patient and wait until you can afford it...

 

wouldn't it be nice if people would just learn? ^that should be a "sticky" sentence.

 

Plenty of approaches in this thread:

Yes, I think there were some home-depot materials some folks have used. More important than where you get the material, is to be mindful of the airflow. Don't use something with tiny holes.
