^thanks. I was trying to explain to the guy who did it for me, the concept of making chicken soup from chicken ****. I guess it loses its punch in the translation

definitely looks nice, i'm looking for a more spaced mesh (thicker and slightly more holy).

but for 26$ that's awesome! good work.

Props for putting that effort into it. I want to do a hollow grill, no mesh.

Considering I I paidfor labor with a large pizza($12) & beer($10), I think I got an awesome deal. Total cost=$48. I will get some better pics up today. I just washed it, and I've got the good camera. I will take some close ups, so you guys can pick it apart(& hate if you so desire)

looks good man, i actually ordered this same grill around october due to a freak milkshake smashing my stock 5 bar. the curve of mine didnt quite fit like yours, taking me some time to bend the grill to fit. overall, for 26 bucks the grill was fine, but i ended up buying a badgeless fk from ecs about a month ago. i like the custom mesh job though. definately two thumbs up on some simple ingenuity.
