Hawkeye Front grill de-badge
 
I am thinking of de-badging the front centre grill on my hawkeye, I have taken it off and if you remove the badge you are left with a hole in the mesh..[img]/confused-smiley-17428.gif[/img]

Anyone know where they do replacements center grills or is it a DIY job with new mesh..!

Any one done this already if so pic's please..[img]/happy-smiley-566.gif[/img]

Cheers.

Just something I been thinking of doing for a while Glenn, not 100% going to do it but i do like it..

Going to keep my original grill, and experiment with a donor one hopefully if I cant get a streight replacement, so if I change my mind in 10 mins I can put the original back on..

DIY job for me
I bought a sheet of stainless steel mesh grill and cut my own
Then sprayed it satin black
Only problem was I had to buy an 8ftx4ft sheet of mesh
Got lots spare if you want to pop round for some:D

Budgie your a top bloke but too far for me to travel thanks for the offer though..[img]/happy-smiley-566.gif[/img]

Removed the front grill tonight, stripped it down by removing all the screews, un clipped the mesh now so i am off shopping tomorrow to see if i can match up the mesh.

Good thing about it is that if i change my mind in a couple of months i can put it all back as it was in about 20mins...[img]/grinning-smiley-17116.gif[/img]
