Not exactly what you're looking for, but I painted some teeth on my front skid plate:

@bandit, completely remove the whole grill? cover it with a pice with the cut outs?

just cut the slits out and make alternating teeth. Maybe add some metal fangs or something if you ant something extreme. I actually thought about doing this. Still not sure about the whole idea though.

No No No. make cut outs that go infront of the stock grill so there is dark behind it

I've seen something like this in on a Peterbuilt semi.

We have enough cooling issues as is, whatever is done should be well thought out so it doesn't block any airflow to the radiator.

Someone did that like a year ago if I remember right. It was a whole grill with lights behind it.

Sent from my mind using the rusty stock leafs off my xj.
