I'm pretty happy with my terrafirma honeycomb one, it seems to be much more open than the stock slatted one.
Another option is the heritage grill but much more $$ or this mesh style.
Good luck!

Not that big a deal to find comparable mesh and then mod common one for close match. I agree that it's the best look with good flow and improved durability over stock.

That's originally what I was looking for. Unfortunately my Intercooler won't let me fit one.

I have the tools. I have a bender sufficient for round stock for the outer edge, I have the welder, grinder etc.
Anyone have a link to the mesh that matches the series grills before I chop up a few old grills? The solid bar stock is easy to find, just need to measure what’s on there. What was going to be the hardest, or at least most time consuming was going to be patching the mesh together from a few donor grills because that’s a bunch of welds and grinding. If there is mesh that matches, then it is just bending and welding the mesh to the round stock.
