My friend made this grill for his 80 using drawer pulls. I think it looks good. What do you think?

The only thing which matters is whether your friend likes it.

I've never seen that one done before. Interesting and I think it could grow on me.

It's OK. To me, it looks like a 50's vintage mod on an 80's car. Not bad, but it doesn't 'trip my trigger'.

Of course, it's not MY trigger that matters. But, you asked....

It would be even better if we had a few pics of how you made it. If it came from China than well....its ok I guess.
