   Hi just a quick question for anyone who can answer for me
   
   Which would look better the Mesh grill or an open grill
   i know there is a guide for meshing the grill but wanted to see what people would say with just an open grill?

    I have got a crappy pic but you get the idea, i just de-slatted mine,
    
    If you are going to mesh it then make sure its black mesh because silver just looks chavvy IMO.

    Personally, i think it look's like a half done job if it's not meshed. It doesn't look so bad, imo, if everything visible is spotless
