Look the lancer does seat five and from the looks of it comfortably! God I wish I was that car... I mean I seat five, or would be willing to try at least. Anyhow, I would be interested in this as well...

I can't really see what he has done tho. Some guys just paint over the silver pointy thing on the grill, and that looks pretty good. I'm assuming they just sand it down, paint and clear coat it.

You should just PM the guy that made that grill, he would know how he did it, right?

yeah i was looking at that one too, but this guy did a custom job, just wondering what he used/where he got it. I went to home depot, couldnt find anything like that except big chicken wire. And he also doesnt have a border on it... i think it looks cool, kinda like evo 7 style
