Front Grill & Light Surrounds - Alternatives?

Hi All,

I am wanting to change the Front Grill and Light Surrounds with ones made out of alloy or steel. Preferably black, but if not can always repaint them. The main reason for wanting metal ones is I will need to cut out a pattern on the grill to fit around a winch and still give strength. Also, metal light surrounds could be made more secure to deter some lowlife trying to nick the speakers.

I have been looking at the "Rage" ones, but they don't answer my questions as to whether they make one for fitting to AirCon Pumas.

Does anyone know or have experienced what other makes are out there that are quality? All info would be very helpful.

Thanks

Steve

Very nice. Look good behind a winch as well.

Are the silver light surrounds included?

BTW, not on your web site yet....
