alteration of the grille - Toyota Mark X, 2.5 liter, 2005
after making the cilia, I began to look at the grille. I really like the regular one, but it does not give aggression to the appearance, and other X's began to appear in the city, from which one must differ in individuality. For these purposes, a used grate was purchased via the Internet, which was mercilessly sawn
the smooth lines at the edges of the grating did not quite suit me and I decided to make them sharper and the side walls and the lower part thicker, and here my first acquaintance with epoxy and fiberglass took place
after installing the finished grille, there was an ambiguous opinion about this restyling (and I don’t have one), it seems not bad, but something is not right. After much agonizing thought, it was decided to make an additional new hood trim, which will continue the line of cilia on the hood and visually make it lower, and the hole in the grille smaller.
Here's what happened in the end
and so to speak in comparison
further I feel it will be more, because appetite comes with eating :)
Gobal
as they say, the lip is not a fool, this is the only MARK X 300G SUPERCHARGER in Russia, it already came from Japan all in overlays, when I take care of my body kit, mine wakes up to look no worse), but this way mine never wakes up :(
Can you link to the super changer? or the friend is not registered?
fuck it!
not only turervi smokes on the sidelines nervously! =) here if you start a list of eminent powerful cars, there will not be enough space =)
this is 3 liters, turbocharged, 320 hp, in general, the taurerV nervously smokes on the sidelines), the owner of this car can accelerate up to a hundred in 5.4 and this is not a chapel)

Of course, you can try to order from Japan, but they say the Japanese themselves sort them out, and there are a lot of troubles, it’s easier to make or order yourself.
thanks, but about the grille, of course, this is a matter of taste, as they say in taste and color ..., especially since the car has not yet acquired its proper form, in which the grille is just a detail that brings the goal closer to reality)
Yes, it looks good with transverse horizontals, it looks like my HKS.
You have a good Mark, good luck with customizing!
Hello, I wrapped my grille in secloplastic, almost from all sides of the outer side, including the side holes you are asking about. And I changed the lines of the front lower part, made it more square. On the eighth photo you can see more or less.
Hello fellow clubber! ;) And once again in more detail: how did you close up the side holes (inside the lattice counter) when you sawed off the transverse strips on the lattice? That year I bought a fine mesh for the grate, but my hands don’t reach what to do.
