To answer your question, it is plastic. I may also have metal mesh in honeycomb available later. This is what most people wanted to see first, a insert that was honeycomb and close to the appearence of the original stock grille. Another thing is these inserts will be changeable if at some point you tire of a look and would like to change it to another mesh. It won't be permanently fixed into the grille. I probably will make it bolt in and you will be able to change it be removing it from the nose so you have access to the rear of the surround. Thanks for your interest in "Goat Nose Grilles".
