Default Speaker grill replacement, what did you use?

I am looking for ideas on something to use for speaker grills. Has anyone replaced there fabric with something other than stock? I read on here where someone used a pair of spandex shorts, cut them to fit, and glued them on.......... What other ingenious ideas have you guys come up with? Also, does anyone have a pair of the stock speaker adapters for a batwing they don't need? I'm trying to get my project finished and am down to needing just a few items left before I button up the fairing. Come on, show me your custom speaker grill ideas!

I went to a fabric store and bought some speaker fabric. Very inexpensive.
