Anyone want a Harley lower grill?

BLACKOUT-FX4 is selling the center to a used HD grill - i've been wanting to make a lower for a while now... i won't need the whole thing, and was wondering if anyone wanted to go halves on it. i'll do your cutting if that's a concern

are you going to be doing the cutting? also is there enough to make 2 good grills?
I would be interested but I would want to make sure the half I got was not mucked up before spending 50

there's enough to make 2 grills - 2 bars each on the 04-05. on the 06-08 body style only 1 would fit without lookin goofy. there are 4 useable bars total. or i could split it up and do 2x 06-08's with the last 2.

the middle 2 are the only ones not useable. the plastic is molded in with the emblem mount. the top 2 and bottom 2 are free all the way across, they just have to be cut out. see

yep, especially for the 06-08's, there's nothin back there... with my 04 i can almost just zip tie it on i'll probably pull out the lower honeycomb and make a couple brackets to fit tho

I don't think you're going to have enough grille width to make more than one grille from looking at the pic of the grille compared to the lower opening.
