Default Just completed Grille Mod...
I saw a write up on this a while ago and have been wanting to do it. Today was the day.

A lot of zip ties/blocks and about an hour-ish later it was complete. Got the Aluminum gutter guard at Home Depot for pretty cheap, all I needed to do was cut it into pieces

It looks great! I'm not sure about what the "blocks" are made of?
Thanks!

Nah wasn't bad. They make these blocks with a sticky side, and a side that allows you to slide zip ties through. It was tedious I will say that but well worth it.

here is an example of the block for who asked!
