I'm in love with the FR500S grille but ain't about to pay $500 for a grille. Anyone know of something similar, metal mesh grill set back into the fascia like this for a more reasonable price? I'm not interested in the Bullitt grille but more of a mesh style...

Tough one man.
A47 have something similar but not as hot.

If you're good with a dremel tool, you could make your own by shaving material off your OEM grille.
Buy the stainless mesh online from companies like Pegasus.com and voila!

I hear you. I'm seriously considering a Shelby grille mount http://www.shelbystore.com/product-p/p8s3z-8200-h.htm
and trying to build it myself like you say Pascal. If you look closely at the FR500S, you can even see the rivets holding the mesh on.

I'd be all over the A47 if it didn't have foglight holes.

That was my exact thoughts...

That's a whole lotta dremmeling! I think I've settled on the Shelby CS8 grille, minus the tiny fogs and shelby lettering bracket. Closest I'll get to the FR500S and professionally made for ~$160.

I know this is an old post, but I have a FR500S grille with a chrome outer trim ring. It's a nice metal grille, and it's fairly rare. It's for sale if someone wants it.
