i thought of doing it for while just didnt know how it would look...buti wouldnt use fiberglass, although i have access to fiberglass and plastic..
i thought of using epoxy to glue it and then just smooth it out...
ill give it a shot theres plenty of grills at the yard if i fuck it up lol

If you just register on the UK's http://www.e30zone.net (largest E30 community on the planet basically) most people have euro grills knocking about somewhere and would happily ship to the US. No need for replicas!
Have a look in the for sale section - theres like a whole page of adverts added to that section each day. Tonnes for sale.
