I didn't know about the rules...
Sounds kinda tacky, but maybe spray painting the mesh a bronze/copper color might make it blend better with the tweeter?

That is a very good option - thanks but I'm not focusing on the grills for another day or two. Still have no sound.

In other words, 'aren't you still going to lose points because the phase plug is exposed with that grille?'

Phase plug is metal and not a moving part.

I am not judging anything, just offering the following for consideration: I recall an install judge that used a ball point pen as his gauge of whether a grill or cover is sufficient. If he could touch a speaker or battery terminal with the tip of the pen then you lose.

Kinda used to **** off the guys that used that heavy duty expanded metal over their subs. Suddenly it was insufficient
