So I have been wanting to do a wide mouth grille for a while but I can only work on my car after hours so this took me a few months to complete. I took my 2 piece HD grille and made it a one piece with some 4240 and use some generic grille mesh from amazon in the center. I have some more mods for the front end here soon just debating on what I am gonna do. 2016-03-08-3289.jpg 2016-03-08-3290.jpg

Stole my idea!! Great minds think alike. But now I have to think of another idea. But as always came out looking good just like I pictured in my head and on photoshop lol.
Nice work man, real clean looking

Would like to see it without the light bar installed if possible.

No problem I'll take it out this weekend.

What are your other plans? Looks like your missing your grill if I seen you driving down the road. Needs an emblem in the middle or some kind of badge other wise looks good

Your're right I am not too fond of that preticulated grille mesh but for now better than nothing.

Won't give too much away but one of my ideas has been to plastic weld a Denali bumper to the HD upper cap to make a true Denali HD bumper. Still playing with the idea seeing as how expensive the Denali impact bar is.

It's just because you've never seen a wide mouth grille on this style grille. It stops and makes you think for a second and then you see the custom work. See them on all the new trucks now.

It looks good. Wonder if you pushed the mesh out further to be almost flush with the rest of the grill if it wouldn't look better.

Thinking about it. Have to make a wooden stencil to press it unless you have a better way.

Oh, I'm saving me some photos... I'm surprised it has taken me this long to find these photos.
