Thinking about trying this mesh with the outer grill surround...

I like the blitz grill, but $800?! You got to be joking me... so I think I'ma try this is an alternate.

Thought?

Do a search. There was a thread about the custom front grille that other members were making, and experimenting with different style mesh (honeycomb, diamond), different sizes, etc. They even had pictures.

i ventured myself to mod my former blitz grille by swapping the wire mesh to a honeycomb mesh

more info in this post

i'm pretty sure it's possible to fit these meshes into the outer surround. good luck!

But I agree, I love that grill, it's just way too expensive

Another idea when it comes to grilles - is it a good idea to try to make out own wire mesh grille? Just buy a rectangular piece of wire cloth - say maybe 4 micron? ( http://www.bwire.com/index.html ) - would be metallic in color - but could always be painted black. Most likely your best bet would be to use stainless steel as that would last the test of time without rusting - hence - stainless steel.

Has anyone ever tried anything like this before? I have my aviation snips ready, just need to order the piece of mesh and go from there - will washers and bolts be the way to go when fastening?
