So I spent a few days and created a custom grille based off of the enegade series grille.

The original stock design of the grille offers white only halos in a dotted type design (shown below)

They come with and without fogs. My alterations include the following....

-Much brighter color changing halos installed controlled via phone or separate remote.

-Can be triggered off of DRLs(headlight gills) or controlled manually at anytime. Last color remembered so if linked to DRLs will turn on and off with car remembering last chosen color.

-Halo design is changed from dotted design to modern brighter clean appearance

-switchback turn signal functionality with quick disconnect ability allowing to easily enable or disable turn signal operation at any time.

-Plug and play functionality of fog lights triggered off of existing fog lights wiring

-Improved airflow on ends of grille to accommodate for velossatech big mouth ram air

I'm curious if anyone would be interested in buying these if I make a bunch of them. I've already created a few and will have them available at Carlisle Ford Nationals June 1st.

Looks great, nice work. The only part I don't like (similar to the eBay RTR grilles) is the intensity of the white when nothing is on. Probably helps with better light dispersion, but I always liked the slightly more transparent version.

Might be more prone to leaking, but who knows!

I see what you mean. A more transparently diffuser. Its possible but not worth the effort and manufacturering thatd have to be done here. Best alternative would be to tint them using tint film. Which would also start to reduce output though. Ill test it and see what the outcomes are

I really like the look, I just wish it didn't have the standard honeycomb interior. I much prefer the smaller, metal mesh that you can get at customcargrills.com. If it had that, it would be damn near perfect!
