Full grill block was created by using Vertical blinds (the kind that you use as a tall curtain for a sliding glass door), cut to fit the opening in the grill, and locked in there with Gorilla Tape. It is hardly noticeable and creates a pretty firm block, as if it is all one piece.

The clear bucket headlight covers were made out of an acrylic poster frame glass. It cut with scissors. Clear packing tape affixed it nicely, then gorilla taped the top of it where the hood meets it. This also accomplished a tight seal between the hood and the headlamps - before there was a huge gap here. So the aero of my metro appears to be quite cleaned up.
