I'll probably be doing this within a week to match my new grill, although with a very different style of mesh than you posted, don't care for the chicken wire looking stuff. I'll post pics new pics of the car when it's done.

That is a local car from my city, one of the craziest GS builds worldwide imo.

If you go this route, I would suggest reinforcing the bottom lip section from the back. It would be really easy to do with fiberglass, big auto stores will sell a $20 bondo kit that would do the job.

Personally I think it is a cool idea but I wouldn't leave it gaping open unless you have a FMIC like that.
