Appearance-wise it's nothing new. But congrats on fabricating this new grille!

Yeah, I'll agree the grill he made does look a lot like the chrome strips. But, if he's hand fabricated this, you have the option to do three horizontal bars (as pictured)... or one horizontal bar... or two... or five... maybe you could do vertical bars. That's where I see some real value to what 350ZZZZZZZ has done.

I've seen some guys do this (horizontal and vertical) with the el cheapo chrome strips as well. Mine have been on for a year now and I have seen no sign of them cracking, fading, or peeling.

I did mine a little differently though. Most have bought the kind that go on the leading edge of the black plastic OEM grill. They are sort of folded over the front edge

Mine are stuck ON TOP of the grill slats. I beveled the ends to conform with the plastic. Since you look at them from above, they look great and you can't really tell they are on top.
