Here's a second idea that I did on my 32 chevy. Cost me less than $25. Same as above on the ford but I used a plastic egg crate grille (hardware store-lighting dept.) that is used for ceiling flourescent light fixtures. Then took chrome door edge protective strips and attached them to the outside edge of the grille (I notice I need to adjust it a little,lol.) First picture is of it painted flat black. Second picture is after I took some good silver paint with a one inch foam brush and highlighted the front edge (there is a slight splotchy effect due to reducing the image for the forum). Hope this helps, it really depends on what you like.
