HOMEMADE HHR Grille

HOMEMADE HHR Grille, BY: RICKYVB

I would walk you through the steps but the pictures explain themselves!

I will tell you the grille I used was gutter guard!





My home made saw, for the tiny spaces.









Finished Product, Before Paint.



Installed without Paint!



Next is the lower inlet space. Going to slip in a gutter guard there too! Stay Tuned!

Thanks everyone. I will post pictures tomorrow of the bottom insert installed as well. Might even get around to taping off the chrome and painting in the black.

That's if it ever stops raining this year!
