So today in math, while I was thinking about everything but permutations and combinations, an idea formed in my head, and I got to drawing

The end result was my idea for a one of a kind custom grille for my '91, inspired by the Raptor. Basically my thoughts are to get a chrome grille, cut out the entire interior of it, then in either plastic, or sheet metal, cut out "FORD" to mimic the Raptor, then paint it flat black, and add the 5 amber running lights, 1 in each top corner, 3 in the top center. And possibly put black mesh behind the FORD in the grille.

What do ya'll think?

Attached is my rough drawing of it

 

LOL i dont know about you but i think math class is more important then thinking about customizing your truck.

 

If I hadn't learned the stuff we're going over now in 8th grade, I would be paying attention

 

well practice make perfect getting the F O R and D to fit the grille is going to be tough unless you make them your self

 

That looks pretty cool, but also looks pretty difficult to accomplish haha

 

Almost need a cnc machine to do the Ford and get it to look perfect.

 

There's about 60 threads on here about doing exactly this. I've tried my self, twice actually. And failed miserably. Oh and not to mention the raptor grill costs 930 bucks at a stealership. It's very hard to use a cnc because of the little shapes and negative space in the grille.

I like it. Idk howd you woukd secure it but if you do get it right letme know

 

Cool idea!!!!!!!!!!!!! good luck

 

Well the idea here is to make the letters out of plastic, then use some epic style glue to secure them to the outer chrome ring of the grille. I'm the process right now of a mock up to see if I like it on the truck or not, with some black cardboard and scotch tape haha
