As far as inserts go, it's not bad. Any pics of the whole front end? The material used reminds me of some commonly available "grating" I've seen in the past. Just can't remember where or what it's intended use was.

That's unique without going over the top. Definately begs for a second glance. I like it. Nice touch keeping the bowtie red.

It's aluminum. I got a piece of scrap from work and cut it to fit. I had to remove all the hood latch assy. to install. Being aluminum it was easy to cut.

That is flattened expanded metal, available at most metal and steel companies, and some home centers and hardware stores.
