My 'Billet Grill' Mod...
 
Ok....today I was interested in doing the intercooler mod...
Looked at the thread, looked at my huge staples line.
I then thought...
'Hmmm....Wait. The staples are just a little bit smaller than my Impreza's grill....Hehehe....:D'
I got a huge grin, cut the staples as little as I could, and after just one foiled attempt....(I used needlenose pliers to hold the grill instaed of having to glue it twice....I found that out after attempt #1...)
I did it!
They fit almost perfectly in the Impreza's grill, and it looks really cool, like a Chrome/Polished Silver Billet Grill!
You might want to paint the VERY edges if you want a super profesional look...But I didn't have paint at the time.
Sorry, I don't have pictures, my digital Camera felt the wrath of someone kicking sand on it...:(
Oh yeah, I used wood glue to glue the staples in...
I use wood glue for everything...:D
If someone else does this, can you please post pictures?
Thanks...
And have fun...
Bash on with your Bits!
EDIT: I got rid of the black...

I'm sorry Canadian Bit, I was actually waiting until someone tells me to stop using black text...So now I am....:D
PS: Are you using greyscale?
I'm sorry....

UPDATE:
The small air intake I made 'Billet', too.
I used the excess cuttings and placed them in the air intake.

Wow!
Good luck with your bB.
I'd just convert it to a normal truck, but that's just me.
I'm not sure if it'll work on a bB's grill though...
I'm happy I made a trend!

Silent_NightR34 09-03-2003 07:05 PM

yeah it might not work but its wortha try...i didn't get the Bb at TRU today because they were out of stock..instead i got skyline and ust getting a Bb body later when they are back in stock...but for now im modding the chassis by puttting a 200maH battery and a 4.2 king pro...the skyline hs a grill so im gonna do it with it...
