billet grilles for es
 

Does anyone know of a company that makes billet grilles for the es.
I saw that Precision makes a sweet looking grille for the 5, has anyone tried using the top grille on a es

A lot of people go to a hardware store and make their own by purchasing similar looking material and wrap it around top of the factory grills. I haven't tried it yet, but plan on doing the same thing. Those things are kind of pricey otherwise. You would have to get a piece of newspaper or something if you want to keep the Mazda symbol on the front and have the grills around both sides. The bottom would be pretty easy considering the fog lights are on the outside.
That is one of the many things I want to do. I don't know how difficult a job it is, but it is inexpensive and looks nice.

FYI: I talked to some one with a '99 Protege who has a mesh grill and you can see what they look like and there is a How To version (2nd Gen though) at www.morrownet.net/negatize/ This for the 2nd Gen now, but on www.msprotege.com there is a HOW TO site on taking the upper grills off either a 3rd Gen or P5 (similar to the sedan like yours and mine). As far as the bottom, I haven't looked at it, but will keep you posted when I do mine. Hope this helps!:D
