The shutter has been installed and working as intended (shutting around 50 mph) for about 150 miles now so I figured it is time to finalize the installation and put the grill back on. I'm sure having it off is not helping my drag one bit.

Bench test of what will be my indicator light housing for the shutter indicator led's. A buddy of mine has a 3D printer so I through an STL file together and did the sanding and painting to make the grooved nylon smooth. Next 3d print project, a custom gauge mount pod for my Scangauge!
