I still need see it to understand what to do.
I also am not interested in trying to find someone to paint as much fiberglass as the mockup appears to have. The paint shops around here will charge me as much as the grill to paint it. In the realm of not worth the bother to them. And if it is not a quality paint job then it won't match (I have black and the sheen must be the same).

Plus I thought this was going to look like the original photoshop that tino put out which looks like the Bentley coupe. Now the last mock-up looks like a pontiac GTO. I thought it was going to carry the center spine look in the grille as a chromed center strut. I wanted my crossfire to look different as in "rare bentley" not like another pontiac going down the street. We have one that looks like a minivan now. I don't want one that looks like a GTO.
Tino talked about moving the mesh forward, but I haven't seen any pic of that. all I have seen is the one with the grille attached to the back of the fiberglass frame. I will wait until I see the grille on a car, but given the cost and hassle of painting the frame I an not so sure now.
