Custom Grills/ Other Easy Mods???

[psu2ski32]

I am looking to do a couple slight mods on my alero. I have a silver 03 alero and was thining that i might put in the custom grills, my problem is that i cant seem to find any black plastic diamond mesh, i can only find like the metal gutter guard stuff, and would prefer black plastic diamond mesh because it will not rust and it is cheaper, as well as i think it will look better with silver. Any suggestions/ Help would be appreciated. Any other easy mods I could do as well?????????

get silver and some good spray paint, and clear coat. paint the silver black.

another easy is caliper painting. check the how to section.

i've posted up a bunch of interior led work how-to's. they are all relatively easy.

smlz did a good grill plating write up. as well as a "how to mod your stock radio" write up... if you don't want to change that....

basically... go to the how to section... you'll be filled w/ ideas in no time! :biggrin:

$7,338.31 to get it fixed, albino? dam boy u got RIPPED!!! and that was nothin like my car... totally F*CKED!!!!!!! yehhh it ended up only being like, 3 grand. oh, and both my drivers side doors were replaced, and the rear quarter panel. it was in a frame shop to straighten it (left side way over a foot off the ground, right side? a few inches o.O") yeh and my back right side tire was twisted in and ruined all those parts in there i duno the name to. gawd yeh it was screwed up. That was before i was a member here, i had had my car about a year.
got slammed in the side by a Toyota Avalon going over 50mph.

yehhh it was a lil over 3 grand? not bad. parts labor everything. yeh i kno we got teh mad hookups but still.

^ well, the parts that were replaced took up a whole page...one line per part. If I can find the invoice from the collision shop, I'll scan it and post it.

don't get plastic mesh. get the metal stuff and paint it black.
