I liked my hood vents made from vegetable trays so well I decided to match them and make my own grill inserts.

Thanks. The raised part of the hood and down around the grill will be painted a Mat Black to symbolize the nose of the WWII aircraft we are painting this up like. So the Hood vents and Grill inserts will all match in with the Mat Black.
