If you could make a little door in the mesh and plasti-dip/paint the tooth red so it peaks out just a little behind the mesh, I think that would be SICK! I love subtlies like that!

I don't think the mesh will be in front of the "tooth"
It sticks out too much.
However, i may be able to put the real red/black carbon on the face of it

Love that! It might be fun to find a way to form the mesh so it clears the tooth though.

The problem i see making that look good is that its almost a 6" difference

finally got the CF sides skirts installed today after having them over 4 month

Im not going with the diamond black mesh....its too weak looking for what I did. im going to get an OEM front grille from another make and custom fit it inside. That should be in Tuesday or Wednesday.

Once I get that installed, I'll clean her up good and take some pics.

She's so filthy

yes brother I ended up going back to my original taste lol.
I felt with the carbon mods that I was actually capable of doing to the inside of the "mouth" the SR lip was truly the best complimenting lip to be along side of the inner real carbon fiber wrap around I made.
Pics hide very much. but I did make a real carbon fiber mold to go all around the inside of the mouth. In person its simply wicked A$$ looking

Like with most things in life, first gut instinct is usually the right one lol Sounds like thats some wild work you did with this one though. Ill have to be on the look out when you get some more pics up of it.

I know your pain with the 4 month wait though, im just installing your lip this weekend with a new spoiler lol Didnt want to put it on right before winter just to sit outside for months straight.
