coryjones · Jan 24, 2013

I started building a grill for my superduty that resembles the raptor grill. Started with my stock shell.

Mock up grill

Nicely done! I've been wanting to do something similar for my obs, just haven't got around to it yet. Great work.

How is the new mesh fastened?

Got a link to the one you found? ya it has taken me some time to get this one done time is not something i have a lot of. I have some other things in mind as well. I would like to build my livewire in to my pillar and put two 10" subs where my stock spare tire is and a few other things i will never have time to do. LOL

no offence to that company but i dont think that looks good at all. just looks to plastic for my taste

bboteler · Jan 25, 2013

Are you gonna make any more? I'd be interested in one for my 05.

coryjones · Jan 25, 2013

Maybe trying to get the cost down

bboteler · Jan 25, 2013

How much you got in yours if you don't mind me asking

Looks good! I can speak for the quality of McNeills glass stuff. I had their fenders and bedsides on a ranger and they held up great

Well i plan to make a few so hard to say. I had to have it bluprinted and then tweeked in cad so i have a far amount of money and time just in the letters. If i was to sell the letters alone i would have to get $100 out of them. I am working on trying to get better prices on the steel and mesh and trying to find a good source for the grill shells at the moment.
