Gille Overlay, choppy choppy the honeycomb?

**Fear my photoshop skills **

Anyways, long story short is I got F'd by a guy one ebay who had listed top grille replacement and lower combo deal when in fact it was a crappy overlay. The quality is good and it looks nice except, of course, you can see the honeycomb so I was thinking what if I took my dremal and did some cuttin (where the green section is below) and left only a few parts so the overlay had something to attach to?

In the future I'll get a real replacement but for now I must move on to other mod stuff....Thoughts?

Did it on mine and came out perfect. Put the grill in first mark it out where the tabs will sit mark it off with a sharpie and cut away. Then paint away if needed. Chech my gallery if you wanna check it out

Excellent! I was almost 100% sure there would be enough stability to hold the grille..............

Grabbing the dremal and extension cord and off I go...will post pictures after I'm done.
