I finally finished up the Satoshi grille. It was quite a chore but does look nice on the vehicle. Here's a quick write-up on my solution. I read up on other people's implementations and tried to take key elements from each and add my own engineering to make it as durable and modular as possible. This design should be pretty much bullet proof and allow for easy touching up in the future should that ever be necessary.

That really looks awesome, Speedy!

 

Nice work and great write up

 

Speedy,

GREAT work! Can you submit this as a tech writeup?

Bob

Sure, just tell me how.

Excellent! The write up and attention to detail is the best I've seen. I really like your simple yet impressive bracket for the landcruiser "TOYOTA". The TRD addition is a nice touch too

Great write up. Like the use of the pics. Works really well, better than a pic here and there . How long did the whole process take from start to finish?

 

Awesome write up......I think I'm gonna give it a shot soon

 

Very nicely done. The step-by-step pictures are invaluable.

Looks great

 

It took me about 16 hours of actual work time (most of which is sanding). Some of that was waiting on primer and paint to dry. Due to weather (cold or rain) it took me about 3 weeks to complete as I couldn't paint on bad days. I'd just work on it a little at a time, a couple of hours a night doing what I could. In the end it worked out better as I didn't rush on any particular part where if I'd tried to do it in a weekend I'd have felt pushed toward the end and might have gotten sloppy.

 

that grille is tits!

 

tits is a powerful adjective, but that grille looks awesome. I like the trd addition.

 

Thanks, Corey didn't wanna use my article as there is one already in the tech section. I'll leave it on my site for a while for those interested.

 

speedy,

it's so good that i'll ill reference it in my writeup (which is the one in the tech section)

good job on improving on the original

bob

 

Speedy, I said you could submit, but just get me the pics sized as stated in the instructions, and it will be good.

Where is the cheapest place to purcase a grill to mod ebay?

D

 

I've been lookin for grilles on ebay too. Haven't been able to find any. I don't want to mod my grille incase I screw it up! I submitted a search at uneedapart.com. It searches all the junk yards in the nation.
