Hey Chad. I don’t comment often it’s easier to read the others cuz someone may have already said what I was thinking. But just a suggestion. I like the grill. Expecially since it’s you’re first entire creation in a grill. Nice. My idea to add to that would be to curve all pieces inward like a funnel only with you’re shape. Then in the center way inside get you’re plasma cuter. Cut out HILTZ on a flat plate. Maybe even back light it? Then back light the sides inside the grill with you’re side marker turn indicators to tell others which direction you’re turning? You’re building a brand and as always building a bad azz car no one has or has ever been done. Also as cool as this car is consider upgrading the power train. Atleast a V8. Not for speed but for the sound and visual. These cars all could be cooler with attention to detail like doing under the hood. I bet if you remember when you were young and why you started building was to get attention by having something different. But try to remember you were making them cool for yourself to drive. You’ve inspired many don’t loose out by skipping the thought of the young kids following you’re lead. You are a leader for the next generation of builders and I think a great teacher. It’d be nice to see you gravitate to helping a young person to help them build their car inviting them to work along you. Trading you’re skills for some labor on things you’re working on. I believe you’d not only be the only one doing this but become even a better person by giving a little of yourself in the process. Thanks you’re friend from Utah! Clint

Chad! Take a look at the proportion of the headlights and the grill. The headlights seem too big

sometimes you have to scrap a bad idea and start over again, I'd forget trying to make it look like Merc or some Ford product, the Corvette grill fit the shape, hanging stuff off the front looks like just that. You have a simple expression going don't confuse it with a homemade flexible chrome job.

[@willwade1101]

If you need to put a curve in the 2 outer pieces of square stock take a small(^ to* inch) pipe wrench, set the jaws with a pace wide enough for them to loosely fit the square stock & sheet metal & use it as a handle to slowly curve it out to put a rounder look to the grill.

[@glenncuomo5376]

Get yourself a mini belt sander. They work great for grinding and shaping your welds.

[@paulnull5389]

Not sure why you did not replace the panel below the radiator before fabrication of the grill. Panel is needed to protect radiator and direct air flow through the radiator. Without the panel you may experience heating problems. This is one of my favorite builds

[@clinton-x2u]

Looks so much better , now if the peak extended upward toward the hood it would be perfect . the grill should fit the shape of the peak of the car not just stick out of the front end.

Chad . . . criticism is always tough but sometimes helpful. You have captured the original design of the car very well, but the grill area shows no relationship to any other design elements of the car. It may work better to use rounder elements with soft curves to mimic the other great work you have done. The Corvette grill actually fit the character of the car more effectively.
