Geoff and Warmon,

Thanks for the compliment. For my first attempt, I was pleased with how well it turned out.

Warmon,

I used the 6 1/2 inch speaker grills from Parts Express. The inside diameter of the inner ring was just slightly smaller than the diameter of the outside port flare. Since the ring sets up about 1/4", it worked perfectly. I spray painted the grills with Rust-oleum American Accents SandStone fine textured finish (from Home Depot). It was the spray paint that most closely matched the color I used on the end caps.
