Any good? Sprayed with the mesh flat on the floor, with white Smoothrite, through a homemade stencil, which I cut out with a craft knife.
It could really do with being redone now, that photo is from about three years ago.

How do you mean, "mine is not that tall"? I thought all the grilles were much the same size?
As for black lettering, it would depend on the grille colour..........on mine, black lettering would be daft
I've seen a VERY nice example of a Subaru "Swoosh" in red on a silver mesh.
