Will there be a cross hatch mesh on the back or will it be as depicted with the open slot?

We came to the realization that there is no mesh anywhere else on the SC. For you, Walt, I'll put some mesh on there if you want me to .

Any close up pics of the grille from different angles? Wonder how it looks on a stock painted 97 bumper.

Also can you post a picture of the oem style in CF?

You have a deal, then..... Thanks, Irving....

I have "warmed" up to the grill on the F Sports (like the LS F Sport grill) and the LC500 .... Of course, it is just a small slice on the SC...

We used that on the first body kit front and while subtle it did provide a unique look.....

lol. I figured instead of just a slit of mesh you might want the rest for the bumper

When I saw the sheet of mesh in the box don't think that that thought did not cross my mind!!!!! Will start with just the slot for now..... When I get the bumper repainted next spring (the color match was off...) I may have the shop assess that option....

Thanks !!!!!!
