I wish I had the money... it would work out perfectly because I broke my grill on the passenger side... where the bolts on top are mounted in the grill cracked... the exterior still looks ok and you wouldn't know... it is still braced pretty well... there is a little bit more of a gap between the grill and the header on the passenger side now

I never did!

Its a cost saver to use your original plus a new grill, but not many wanted to drive around without a grill for over a week.

Why don't you post pics of the 4 colors with badgeless grilles. Obviously some of the new folks don't know what you're talking about.

No.

And im not going to sell the grill badges either.
I refuse to box them up and ship them out.
If I see you at a Marauder function, you can HAVE one.

These are the front waterfall emblem.

Waterfall emblems.. :lol:

I appreciate it, but I want a godshead badge up front. Not sure if I want to shell out a good 150 or so for the car motorsports one.

I'm only going to need one grill from Ray. I found that my stock one is broken where it mounts to the header panel.

I doubt it, nothing beats a badgeless grill on a MM :flamer:

Zack,

I have been kicking around having this done for a while now. The more I drive the car the more little rock chips the stock front emblem gets in it. And it is kind of a pain to clean properly and keep looking shinny.

So, couple of things for clarification for this:

1. We order a new grill from Ray and ship to you?
2. Do you need our stock grill as well?
3. If you don't need the stock grill what are you using for the replacement pieces where the emblem is at?
3. What is normal turn around time on these?


Also, as a couple of others have asked (and this is not pointed specifically at Zack), can we get pictures of a badgeless on each of the 4 colors? I am specifically looking for it on a SB, but I know others want to see the other colors.

Thanks.

Its near impossible to get sheet/expanded metal to conform to the grill surround, and then get it to adhere.

Been there, done that!

I know you have. I've seen it. But I really almost have it. I have the compound curve right and an edge technique. I spent two of your donors getting that far. As for the attachment, I got that figured now - no glue - mechanically attached, but need another grille!!!!

I actually have the mesh FLUSH with the grille surround facia, not behind it.

And no, I will not make one for any of you. You can't afford it! This project is a one off by me and for me only. No copycats. No, I will not post pics and no, I will not discuss it further on Zack's for sale thread (or anywhere else for that matter)! There's just some things we craftsmen will keep for ourselves.

Thanx again for the donors, dude!!! :D

He will, however, be more than happy to assist you with sideview mirror turn signals. Nothing he enjoys more, just ask Dennis

Heck, they're EASY now!!! His PS was a beyotch, but he DS went easy! Dayum instructions sucked. And why did they tap the rear signal and get brake? Should have tapped the front signal.

I digresss :shake:
