Opinions for New Grille.

[Kale]

I'm planning on doing a custom grille for the front end of the car and came up with a few ideas. At first I was leaning topwards the mesh grill, but then I started screwing around and I think I like the last one best. What do you guys think and how about some more ideas? I'm gonna create a horizontal grille as well and see how that looks. I'm also trying to source a better Lincoln emblem.

Also, I'm looking for an extra grille. If anyone has one that they want to get rid of, send me an [link:mailto:djkale@kalekainoa.com|email].

Wow! I, like most everyone else, that reads these Lincoln forums, have seen several different ideas on custom grills, but I gotta tell ya, your first concept is beyond awesome. I've never seen a Ferrari look any meaner. Really gives a Mark a European flair.

Throw my vote on the first one as well.

No Kale no lower vent's...atleast not with the mesh (Screams Rice) Sorry man, stick to the first one and you'll still be the guy i look up to most with the Mod's... the mesh already says Caddy but man it looks good ! P.s. you've got to give us some photochop lessons

[/div]i agree to me anyting mesh looks cheap i like the last one or even more bars in it make them thiner and closer together

edit the last one is the stock one

I personally like the first one. Kind of reminds me of the Jaquar X-Type R....which I really like

I wonder how that owuld look on a 2nd Gen in Ivory....

The first one gets my vote also.

Couple of other ideas:
Honeycomb design
What about brushed or polished billet horizontal bars, sort of like this

Aw it was looking so good Kale.. LOL Go back to the first pic horizontal bars look to much like Luke skywalkers Cruiser Ship thingy LOL Stick to the Caddy mesh/Chain male it should all look hella tough with those big wheels you got on now How bout a front corner shot with the first mesh grille and the wheels ? Heck i might even do it !!
