why spend the extra money ? i found the mesh for $3 at home depot and its big enough for all 3 slots. If it falls out at any point its a cheap replacement to put back anyway.

go on mcmaster.com and order whatever the hell you want. why pay more because it's called a "RACING GRILLE MESH MAD TIGHT YO" on some stupid performance site when it's something as simple as effing mesh.
Yea i was wondering isnt the gutter mesh what most people use? i read through alot of threads and thats the idea i was getting.

i mean it's definitely fun to drive and feels much quicker, but don't expect to be that quick.
i like the fact that s/c is just a bolt on + the sound of it = && i dont need to be that quick lol this car isnt gonna be running on a track or anything

Just dont be cheap. If you build it cheap, it wont last for ****.
Expect atleast 4k to t/c

after reading through a lot of forums i got the sense that t/c has more problems than a s/c + i really dont have 4k to spend on one considering i want to do other stuff to my car and im a full time college student
