OK Charger folks, are we ready to see some carnage? Well I'm ready and itching to start hacking this thing up (my favorite part!! ) so stay tuned~

First step is to spend over a GRAND on 2011 Charger nose parts...

ext step would be to install said Charger parts on the car, looks kinda cool with a black nose eh?

Keep them coming. Would like to see how this turns out!

MoPower 09-26-2011 10:34 PM

I WIN - she is now toothless! LOL The white rectangular frame inside the hole is the designated area where the mesh will be. Stay tuned, more pics to come.

Next step is to complete the shape by filling in the missing area so I can fiberglass it. Anybody notice the beginnings of a front spoiler?

Coming along nicely

MoPower 10-27-2011 11:05 AM

Sorry I havn't posted for a while, I've focusing on the wide body lately. The design of the grille is done, just need to smooth it out and make the mould.

I didn't have much time to work on it today but I did get the entire thing smoothed out and painted matte black. I'll be starting the mould tomorrow and it will be done by Friday :D [IMG]

OK guys, a lot of you have been asking so I finally got my act together. I've been looking for a long long time for the perfect mesh patterns that I feel would look awesome with my products and I've narrowed it down to these. I'm planning on stocking all of these. The woven mesh can be cut at either angle to give it a different look. If you look closed at my original photoshops of the red car that I made (below) ,they are both sporting the "Woven Mesh 45"
