ive always been irked that there were so many ranger grilles, but none really along the btruck styling. so i stumbled upon the wire mesh grille mod and thought i would try it out for my mazda truck, hopefully keeping the only htings that make it a mazda, the headlights grille and taillights. heres what it looked like installed... also i put on clearcorners (from ebay) and the clear lens turning signas... i am trying ot get rid of all chrome and make it black and white. also it has a bug deflector which i glues a painted white emblem on it.

also you may notice that i painted that little ridge on the inside of the grille, it was an interesting effect, and i think it looked cool... so all this was done with some white rustoleum paint on some wire mesh for rain gutters, sold at lowes. it was bent onto the grille form the inside and thenglued on and it holds its shape.
