    Mesh grille for v70 ph2 facelift 2007

    Guys, I'm sure this has been covered before, but has anyone cut out the
    centre from a facelift V70 standard "waterfall" grill and fitted a mesh in its
    place ?
    I can't find anywhere now selling a black mesh grill for the facelift V70.

    If there are any pics available, that would be very helpful.

    (I know there's the alternative of painting the standard grill black, but I prefer the mesh look.)

    Thanks
    John

    It's something I've been thinking about but not yet gotten around to.

    "how hard can it be...?"
    19t, greens, 3" inlet, 3" downpipe with race cat, V70R catback, autotech map...

    Got an old discovery now.

    If the new grille is a "part", installation won't be hard at all.
    If you fabricate a new grille with some mesh you'll find edging it or even bending it will be where the challenges arise.
    I want to fit some mesh to the lower opening of my V70 to protect the AC condenser. I figure fitting any mesh to this low point will be a great place to practice.
