Changing color to speaker grills ...

[salvasol]

I bought some JBL Venue speakers, but the silver grills bother me a little ... I wanted black grills.

After searching for options, I had to decide to either paint them, change the speaker cloth (a big headache according to some information I found online) or get new black grills from JBL @ $35 each .

I found some "Dye" we had at home, so I decided to try ... the results were fantastic (here is acouple of pictures with the before and after)



I posted about this on avsforum.com, and one of the members followed this idea too, you can read about this here http://kf0rt.home.comcast.net/~kf0rt/jbldye/jbldye.htm

If you have some speakers with silver grills that you don't like and want to change the color to black ... try this option ... is cheap and efective

Nice easy mod for your speaker looks the black grills look a lot better. The contrast between the silver and black looks good .
