Sneak peek to a new project! (Hint: Double slat grills!)

Just got the materials/components in today and couldn't help myself. Decided to mock it up!

Final product will be with gloss black trim






Oh... and one of the rear end!


Finished up:

O really. Props for taking a plunge that no vendor would venture into.

Aside:
Did you tint your tails, or is that just lighting?

I'd take a full gloss black set.

I love the P101's more though

Thanks for the kind words. I expect the grills to be done by next weekend. It's definitely not "easy"
