They used decals on the areas outside of the headlights to give the appearance of the perforated aluminum grill pattern there. You can't get the decals anywhere. Does anyone know of a way to get the same effect?
 
Are you referring to these areas?

I think you would need to find NOS but this is one year only so it might be easier and cheaper to buy the bezels. CTC Auto Ranch has a pair.
 
I had a local sign shop do all the decals that are not available for my car.
 
I had to bring in sample's of what I needed, this is just a small shop but the owner is in to cars.
 
I'm pondering how I can accomplish this with pieces of perforated aluminum, more durable than a decal. If I come up with a solution, I will share it.
 
Is that area actually a perforated grill? If so maybe use the grill material used on the rear seat speaker. The speaker inset into the rear seat back on some models. Anyhow, a while back somedone on this board found a source for that material. Try searching for "speaker grill".
