    I <3 DIY - Badgeless grille

    DIY - can't get enough of it!

    My latest creation (spurred on by the ridiculous prices that requires one of these to reach our doorsteps).

    Ta da!









    Up close it's far from perfect, that's why I painted it back to textured black. I would have preferred it all colour-coded, but it would amplify the imperfections. Improvisation!

    Thanks! All up, probably cost me ~$75 + many hours. Bought myself a Dremel along the way, but I'm not gonna factor that in cos I'll be using it in other DIY's too hehe.
