thanks again for the advice for the grill. as for your model, it's looking very good except for where the door is connected to it. You can tell it's just extruded, depending on if your going to animate the door opening or not, I suggest having just a slight crease as the outline of the door, making it visual that the door is there but not creating an extruded door.
