I just got a Black SS S/C....not too sure about the wide open lower grill. Kinda want to get some stainless mesh. Anybody have any suggestions as to where to get it? Is the type in the hardware stores to be trused?

 

I used the precut gutter guard for mine, works great

and was like $2

 

How durable is that stuff? Does it tarnish easily?

 

Here is how it looks on my car.



no rust, no tarnish, and it keeps my intercooler safe from all the **** on the roads!

 

nice man howd u do that and where did u buy it? and how long u think installation is? i may do that this weekend along with some underglow im getting for free from a friend who wrecked his car

 

You can always paint it

I love my $10 grills.

 

is there a how to? on how to do both of these grills and were can i buy the grills from? i looked and cant find

 

If i were to go with the pre-cut gutter material, how much of it would I need? It could just fasten with a few zip ties, right?

Does the intercooler really sit that low????

 

Mine was $3, and its held in with zipties

 

Went to the hardware store the other day and they didn't have the metal gutter gards. They did have some galvinized steel mesh...was 6 bucks for about 50 square feet...anyone use that stuff?

What type of paint should I use? I was looking for some sort of radiator or engine block paint...

 

mine came from the dealer with the grill attached. if i were you, i'd use rad paint that way it won't get burnt off if the intercooler gets super hot!

 

So I finally made the mesh grille...now i just have to install it.

Where did you guys anchor the zip strips to for the lower grille? Need some help with this one....

 

i got some stucco wire mesh stuff at home depot. a huge ass sheet for 7$ then a 99cent spray paint. 2$ worth of those little zipties. all at home depot

i made mine, but you can barely see it because the openings arent close enough together, but for now, it keeps stuff out of there so its fine with me until i find some better stuff.

edit: holy old thread batman

 

rocco i did te same thing lookks ok but at least it keeps the **** outta my ic

 

Yea...I used the 1/4 inch galvenized steel mesh and sprayed it with black semi gloss rad paint...just need to figure out where to anchor it under the bumper.

 

This is mine, the bottom is done too just don't have a pic

 

What did you zip tie the screen to on the lower grille?
