Default speaker grill/adapter ?

I'm thinking about changing my KW speaker grills out for the HD Burst grills, but a light bulb just went on. I have speaker adapters for 7" speakers, and the HD Burst are open to see behind grills. Now I'm thinking it will look like crap as you will be able to see the adapters.

Anybody using "open air" grills and have adapters back there and can supply a pic?

thanks.

I think you won't be able to see the adapters to much... I make custom speaker grillz and most my customers have adapters, and you can hardly notice them.

My personal bike has VERY open style and since the adapters are black, you dont notice...


you can see a bunch of pics at my facebook page to get the idea. BTW, those new Harley grilz are super kool!

Thanks for the info and pic Benji.

I've been linked to your FB page before, but couldn't remember the business name.

Could you PM me info on pricing for your custom grillz?

Thanks.
