Finally after having the 3 lowers done for about 5 months I am getting onto the upper grille. Some may remember that I did all 3 lowers utilizing the stock grille inserts, cut out all the louvres and replaced with expanded aluminum. Well I finally have some spare time and I am almost finished the upper grill, for this one I pulled the OEM grille out, cut expanded aluminum to size, re-used the trim, re-used the Rings, re-used the quattro badge, currently everything is still shiny aluminum and chrome, I still need to sand and powdercoat the trim and grille material, a nice flat black. Keep the Rings and Quattro badge shiny. I will post step by step pics when I am all done

 

I did the same to the lower grills as well, but was going to buy the sport mesh grill they have for sale, post the pics of maybe i'll just do what you did.. wanna post it as a DIY???? explain steps to do it, might be usefull other peeps..Just an idea..

 

I will post a DIY when it is finished, I considered the sport mesh but I decided I wanted the top to match the bottom, The DIY on this is easier than the lowers

 

pics pics pics.... don;t wait til you're done man

 

Here are the finished product pics, if there is enough interest I will post a DIY, this mod is simple and came out better than I could have hoped for. You may notice that the trim is resprayed with a mettalic gunmetal, I am in the process of respraying all the trim to match. Gives it the look of the titanium package.

P.S. Currently waiting for my replacement europlate
