Frustrated by the lack of grille cloth available for us these days I took a trip over to JoAnn Fabrics and found some very nice candidates which run the gamut of looking like old original cloth to jazzy new cloth which you would use to give your radio some pizzazz. The prices are much lower than buying standard grille cloth and your selection is practically unlimited. You do have to be careful to select fabric that will allow sound to pass through well. Any thoughts on this? I have some photos but not sure how to post them.
