It's not going to be turned upside down like some of the others were. It will still be open to the bottom and pulling air in and up into the radiator. Shouldn't be an issue.

Love the grill!! Can you maybe start with the grill first so you can get a cost factor?

Whichever spare part I can get first will be where we start at this point. I have had two grilles offered and both appear to have fell through at this time.

Price is going to be comparable to existing upgrades. I am not a fan of those billet grilles but I know a lot of people like them. I have seen those go anywhere from $300 to over $500!! Unless something goes terribly wrong I know it will not cost that much. Stock running boards from the dealer are $400. I know I can offer my design, which I think look a lot better, for pretty close to the same price.

I already know my start up costs. I only hope that enough people are really interested to help me recoup that cost. I don't want to make the prices high to recoup it all at once, but I do hope that quantity will do that for me.
