Default Hawkeye Grill Mesh?

Hi All,

Has anyone found anyone that does black grill mesh that is identicle, or close too the standard STI Hawkeye grill mesh?
I want to make one for the lower bumper cut-out but I want it too look the same as the top ones.

cheers!

They are Zunsport ones, I want the originals to remain at the top, the three, I want the same for the bottom, not the Zunsport one as it would look out of place on its own

Revolution used to do one that matched as had one on my hawk, not sure they sell anymore but may be worth a call.

Wondered about this myself.
I just want some plastic coated mesh grill in roughly the same gauge as the upper grill.

Subaru Impreza Hawkeye - Lower Car Grilles and Subaru Impreza Hawkeye - Lower Mesh Grilles

They do them im black the only way you'll get them to match is by VERY expensive dealers or Revolution if still doing them

At them prices they can keep them.

I'm just looking the plastic coated grille mesh to experiment with.

I replaced the mesh on mine. I had no lower mesh so I fitted some that I got from halfords and did the upper grille at the same time. To do both cost me £23, It is a hell of a lot cheaper. I did use a smaller grade of mesh but as i replaced both it didn't really matter.
Check out my profile pic and you can see the results.

£23! why pay the stupid prices charged by others, do it yourself

Don't think Revolution sell them anymore.The one I had on my Hawkeye kept rusting - poor quality IMHO.

Ordered a Zunsport one after looking at their website,used to say 5 mins to fit.When I got it through the post it involved drilling into the bumper!!

Complained to Zunsport about misleading description on their website and I think they changed it.

Ended up cleaning up and re-spraying the rusted Revolution one.
