  • Front grill hole fill-ins (catfish)

    Does anyone sell these? I remember someone on this board designing them but I don't think he ever got enough demand and didn't sell them or something.

    In case you have no idea which holes I'm talking about, It's the holes that the grill is clipped/screwed into.

    Best bet right now besides taking it to a shop to have them filled in is coughing up 200 bucks for the wings west grille... Its all smooth across the front

          lol You guys aren't understanding exactly what I'm talking about. I'm not looking for a grill.

          I am talking about this



          I am doing a ram air setup that will come out from the left/right of that center piece and I am keeping the catfish look... I just wanted to clean it up a little.

            I know thats what youre talking about. the slp and the wings west grilles look very similar to how it looks without any grille... wings west more so.
            What I'm saying is that I havent seen anything for sale that is meant to fill in those holes, otherwise you wouldnt see so many people running around with them unfilled. Cough up the money to a body shop, or do it yourself.

            And ram air setup what? Are you taking the foam out?

                They should really make some kind of clips to put in, but as of now they don't. There really isn't any easy way to do it, even with fillers, as the only stuff that is easy to use would crack, and the stuff that would work is not only a pain, but comes in small amounts, and would therefore be fairly expensive.

                    i havn't removed my grill, but i'd imagine something could be made with a little creativity. try some stuff called quick plastic. you can find it at home depot. you could easily mold something that could clip into the hole on one end, and have a flat surface to blend into where the grill used to be on the other. just paint the one end and presto! a cheap fill in.
