Back in June, Moe and his son Riaz posted about making another billet grille
for their roadster. There's a thread on the 311s.org forums:

Subject: 2000 Grill Question
Group,
My 2000 grill (end to end 5 section piece) is so bent up I have no hope of
getting it looking good again. The center badge is in perfect condition.
Therefore, I've decided to build my own version out of square stock steel
and flat backing plate material. I may have it chromed if the price isn't
out of this world. Since I don't have a good piece to look at, I have no
reference on the following question. Is it my glasses or do the pieces
slightly bend up on both ends? I'm getting that observation from viewing
other roadster pictures on the web. If they do bend up, I'm not sure why, or
if I build it straight that it will look strange. Any ideas?
Thanks
Steve Harvey
P.S. I got 26 people asking for the fender support drawing. I sure was
surprised by the great response.
