Looks good, I like it!
How are you going to bridge the bar in the middle where the badge goes?

Another option is you could always import one from NZ that basically looks like that.

looks great rudy :)
some discrete mesh behind to support the slat, and no badge but an "insane" sticker on the bonnet instead FTW

Can you please post a pic without a badge, if not too hard to remove. It looks better than I imagined it would. I thought about doing exactly the same but convinced myself that my way would look better. I have just proved myself wrong...

that slat is strong, I have been sanding in the middle where I glued a piece behind the badge and its strong. I killed 2 grills to make this one, glued pieces behind first to get rigidity then glued patches on top, just need to do a little fingerdab with bog tommorow and sand and ready for prep/paint (red)
