I'm suprised Strat or someone else hasn't made a replacement grill with the HEX pattern.

Default The closest I have been able to get to is with expanded steel mesh.

Default I think we determined that the opening on the S4 is too wide to hold the mesh
I guess it all depends on your midification abilities. All I know is that I was unable to find the plastic mech and further more it's impossible to work with because it's not benable, you can only melt it and that would not have worked.

Where did you get this and did you have to paint it?
