Anyone know of this grille?
I believe this one is another Jason Burtman custom grille, that he will put up on sale soon, *hint hint*, but in case I might be wrong, any ideas on where to find it. It looks really really good.
Sorry for the hotlink Jason.
TIA,
Marko

I would just contact him directly about it and see what he says.

Anyways, I was thinking that the mesh is the secret, I'll just get an aftermarket OEM style chrome grille (I have the fugly plastic one right now) and put the mesh in, but it would be nice if a WHOLE grill/mesh setup would be for sale.
Summary...I won't contact him until I have the bank to order it for sure.

EDIT:
Check out Ebay. I haven't yet heard of any company that sells specific kits but someone on Ebay may have an easy kit for you to buy. Be forewarned though, it'll cost you more than if you just checked it out for yourself.

Dude...nobody is gettin mad or anything.
It was just unclear what you wanted to get out of this thread...basically you want to know if anybody knows where you can get a chrome grille with mesh like that right?
I think the actual structure of the grille is from Toyota and then the mesh is obviously aftermarket.
I would just IM Jason and ask him about it...just $.02

marko,
i am 99% there is nothing special about buying and inserting the mesh grill material inside the vent slits in it. for the satoshi grill mod, the metal is still fairly pliable. you may want to go to your local auto parts store in the "rice" section (as tacoma suggested) and check out the various kinds of material. the more pliable, the better, but not *too pliable*. ebay is another good source, but not really so since you cant judge the flexibility of it online

I am sorry about the trouble, and thanks for IM'ing Jason, Fink. I feel like a complete retard now. Therefore, I believe I will delete this thread and come up with another one with an answer, which might be a write-up too.
Gracias,
Buenas Noche,
Marko

Sorry if my post came off as harsh - I didn't see this post above and didn't realize you were looking for a kit. So I was a bit confused...

Case closed. Jason has the grille mesh on sale on his site. Only reason I couldn't find it is because it's listen under a 1999. I would have thought about that if it wasn't so late.
Thanks for all the help dudes, sorry if I got a little ticked too. I'll just leave the thread up as an example of my stupidy and as a resolution for anyone who wants to have a grille like Jason's. Thanks to you too BTW, Jason.
