go for blue if your car is white blue or yellow go for smoke if it is anyother color

and yes a mesh is a good idea but paint everything behind flat black ( and wich grill are you replacing)

Go to an office supply store, buy one of those clear plastic report folders, trace the outline of your window onto a piece of paper, transfer the template onto one of the clear sheets, cut and trim the sheet, and you'll have a new window! It will also be more realistic and better than the plastic kit piece!

Sand and polish?

Start from 2000 grit, all the way up to 8000 or 12000 girt, then use automotive body polish or any type of polishing compound.

I've just done it to my Hasegawa WRX windows. I sanded up to 12000 grit, then gave them a coat of Future. Turned out good, but I won't have pics for a little while yet...

Go to a beauty supply shop and look for 4-way nail file/buffers. I have one that's blue/red/white/gray and the smoothest grit is just about 12000.

This is a 3-way one:
http://www.sallybeauty.com/shop/prod...pf%5Fid=154788

You can see two grits on the front, and then the opposite side is all one grit, different from the two on the front.

They don't ever say what the grits are, so you may have to experiment a bit. 12000 grit feels perfectly smooth to your skin...
