Bar grill

ok
I am fairly satisfied with the work I did on a helmet for a friend...
However I hate the bargrill work I did.

If I provide dimensions and style can someone make me a bargrill that doesnt look like a football cage..that I could rivet on??

If we are just a social costume party then I would like to know how those that feel this way feel about our Laurelate.
