Mk1 or mk3 like in the above image?

I imagine a mk1 grill would not be as effective visually... but i have one to measure off.

Is the mk3 grill the same height/width gents?

I can make it in virtually any color vinyl we can get. But as for what i have on hand, I'll have to check.

I'm pretty sure i have black and white, gold, emerald green, a dark brown, yellow, red, and holographic chrome off the top of my head.

I can't take credit for what others built- all I can do is try to put her back on the road. :shock:

You just can't fix stupid... you can hide it sometimes though... :lol:

Been messing a bit.

I have plenty of straight fonts- a basic arial font seems pretty close, i could clean it up. But i built this straight off a swiftune image... to make it close. Used everything from the 'tune letters for swade's name.

I of course would add an enclosed border around it as the above graphic.
