Default Weekend Mods, 56k Beware! (Grill, Fog Lights, Neons)

Installed my Gutter Guard Grill, the bottom peice was so hard to fit around the fogs, I will have to redo it ($1.27 for each grill), on another weekend, but for now its ok, the top part came out real nice, though I need to recenter the logo (attacked by fishing wire -almost invisible). Installed fogs with a switch on the inside. Also helped my friend install underglows in his Ford Mustang. Enjoy!

With my lack of artistic ability I'm afraid my bottom grille would look like that too. Good effort what did you cut the stuff with? Tin snips? Well it looks good, only up close photos can you see the jagged edges you left.

Here is my gutter guard grille....I only have the top piece done. Im going to have to take off the bumper to get the bottoms done as well as the top is. I have since redone the grille from these pictures to get it perfect.





Im sure the bottom isnt easy...nice try though...great lights

hmm.. the scion logo on the front looks just a tad crooked. i'm not really big on the custom grilles either, but i think if you like something.. then it's your own (and since you made it you can be proud, that junk isn't easy). That's my only issue personally though. Other than that i think the lighting set up would work pretty good if the rest was kept OEM.

I like the top grille, the bottom one, like everyone else said, not so hot.

Neons are pushing it a bit, just not my style(and I think their illegal where I am)
