need help..

ive got the ctr grill and mesh (not original) & the mesh that came with this grill i got doesnt seem like the original mesh, the patterns and the size of the patterns dont look proper..

does anyone know where i can buy the original looking ctr mesh itself & roughly how much? [melb]

i know this is very minor but to me, ctr grill must be made to look perfect as it changes the whole perception of the car :D

Usually that sort of stuff is a bit difficult to come across, an alternative is Autobarn or somewhere like that which has different types/ coloured mesh for around $50.

Hey man dont u have a grill in your EM1, just unclip the badge and its there. Unless its for another car like a vti where u woud have to DIY with your own mesh or buy an aftermarket one.

Sorry to kinda change the topic.. but since we are talking about mesh, i was just wondering if its possible to paint silver mesh black? by simply just spraying it black.. would it stay on?

u could do taht... but it wont stay too well... stone chip and stuff ll take the black away .... better off just get black plastic mesh like me...

paint will prob come off. Again call Autobarn or somewhere like that and see if they can get plastic, or just buy black.

I was stoked, picked my grill up from fabtech up here for $60, no original grill mesh, but he just cut some for free. $50 for mesh? Want it to be gold plated:p
