Fully Open Lower Grille
I like the pattern of OEM lower grille but it would be nice if the sides of the grille weren't closed off. Does anyone have suggestions? Im not a big fan of the tight mesh from RaceMesh.

I can't see the attached photo, but I assume you're talking about the grille in front of the FMIC.
I recently had everything open, installing a new intercooler, and decided to try to open up the ends of the grill. First, I tried to cut/dremel out the diamond shaped plastic filling for each hole in the mesh... Nearly impossible to do cleanly with the tools I have. So I ended up just cutting out the ends that are filled (while leaving the rim of the grille for attachment).

Here's a couple photos from today. Both from a distance and up close.

It's a 1M Rep bumper...
The center grill comes that way, no mods required
