348 TB/TS Mesh Grill INSTALLED!

Thanks Brent for doing this, I was going to do so but my cars in getting it's major...
This is easy as pie, cant wait for mine!

 

Nice write-up Brent...way to endorse the product

 

Brent,

Wow..what a great write up!!!!!! I am so happy the grille worked out as designed. Your testimonial really makes all the work worthwhile and puts a huge smile on my face.

I will be posting a sale thread here with all the details on how members can get the grille very soon. I will also list the grille in the sale section on F-Chat and is already listed on Ebay. I am waiting for a "final" cost from the powdercoater. The shop is trying to give me a good price based on volume so I have to try to estimate how many may sell.

I listed the grille on Ebay for $85.00 pluse $20.00 shipping. It will be substantially less for FChat (Hopefully right at the $55.00 mark) I just want to get the final figures before I post the final information.

Thanks again Brent and to everyone who has followed this project.

Awesome Brent!!!
And you left work early just so you can get this done IMMMMMMEDIATELY!
You're a good guy! Grill looks great too!

 

Is that chicken wire?

Orrrr.....

Rabbit cage wire?

 

Niether.

It is a metal mesh screening that was chosen for its durability, strength and because of the its very close pattern to the grille on the rear decklid of the 348.

It is definately not chicken or rabbit cage wire. LOL!!!!!

Thanks for the laugh.

George

 

Never been on a farm? Both chicken wire and rabbit cage has far wider holes

I think it looks quite good, and does match the engine mesh almost identically. George, you should be proud of this one! Sell 'em fast, ship 'em faster!

 

I will take both. Front and rear

 

Same here... powdercoated black please!

The mesh looks fantastic and really gives the front end a purposful look. I wouldn't mind adding one to my car but wonder how it will fit as mine is one that came with the black trim around the opening.

Has this option been addressed yet?

 

Copterjon,

The mesh sits behind the grill so as long as you have the same grille as pictured in Brents post, I do not beleive any trim around the opening will affect it. Can you post a pic of your grille. I may be able to tell by looking at the picture.

Hope this helps.

George

 

Here is a pic but I'm not sure it will give you the right visual. Yes, the grill itself is the same but I'm thinking there might be some fitment issues due to the fact that the trim piece not only fits around the opening but goes inside as well.

Copterjon,

I dont beleive you will have a problem. The grille has a little "wiggle" room that should be fine with the trim piece. If you decide to get one, I will always take it back if it does not fit, but I am pretty sure you will be fine.

Thanks,

George

 

I see you have them listed on Ebay but still not on Fchat, so the question is when will they be listed here, actually easier to list items on Fchat than Ebay.

 

I am getting ready to list them today. I am waiting for one call from a supplier and the FChat special will be listed today. Sorry for the delay.

Thanks,

George

 

Both - to trap you in
