This page is for pictures of some of my projects. Past and Present.

These pictures are of the Mountaineer grille that I was going to have on my Explorer. I cut out the center mercury emblem and decided to add fiberglass bars in it's place. I spent forever on it, but finally decided to cut all the bars out because I couldn't get the body work to look perfect (I expect no less lol) and then it ended up like the pic on page 1.

Here is a picture of my custom bumper after 2 days of applying fiberglass. It took a while to get to this point because I didn't have any halogen lights to speed the curing of the glass.

Here are some pics of the hood. The pic on the left is after I cut the hood skin off. I later cut the reinforcements out, but I don't have a pic of that. The second pic is after I started to glass the hood scoop to the hood. I still have a long way to go.

Finally, this is a pic of the engine before I cleaned it all up. I might as well clean it all up and paint it while it is out of the vehicle.

Hey man, I've always admired your truck on here, Serious Explorations, and Boosted Mountaineer's site. Really nicely done I gotta say. I thought you had a mesh grille awhile back, not a billet? I was considering black mesh for my mounty, but can't find an old pic of ur truck I thought I saw with the mesh....maybe I'm just crazy? haha, take care

Nice job with the swap! Do you know if that Front lip is still available? I can't find it anymore.
