I know. I've been looking for a different than OEM grill but it's hard to find them for B13's. I've seen people with nice looking one's but I'm guessing they got them custom made or did it themselves.

So far as we know there is NO aftermarket grille for the B13. You have to make it yourself. OR if you want to talk a company into making one you might find a few buyers here.

Iv got two words for you guys, gutter guard. Works perfect for a wire mesh grille.

if you have a 93-94 se-r than you can gut out the grille throw some mesh on it then repaint i.. There is some guy on the forum with a black b13 se-r with it done and I'll admit that it looks pretty tight.

I'm not finished with it yet either - I'm gonna clean it up a little around the edges, add some vertical slats, and an emblem of some kind.

I am 90% sure the 91/92 and 93/94 grilles are not interchangeable - also has something to do with the headlights. If you want to swap the whole front end you could do that ;)

I think you could do something similar with the earlier grille; if you gut the middle two of the four slats you would be left with a rectangular frame similar to the later unit. FYI I have never examined the early grille up close, only in pictures; if you try it and screw it up that's your business. I got a second grille to convert; I can go back to stock whenever I feel like it.

I have a 91' and the ghetto grille mod can be done. I used the little clips it came with to attatch it to the bottom. You do have to clamp them down some with some pliers first to make so it will hold. I then was going to mount the top to it with this elaborate mount, but I discovered that I could just close the hood on it and it fit fine, so I left it like that, if u want I can get some pics.

The 91-92 are totally different than 93-94, so if you have either 91 or 92, dont even try to make something like Rittmeister did, it just wont happen. Not sure if the 93-94 grille wont fit because of the headlights, but the 91-92 has this long bar that goes in between the bumper and grille + headlights. The 93-94 has the grille that sits lower, and 2 small filler panels that go under the headlights. So unless you get all of that, you wont be able to use the 93-94 grille.
