has anyone put a 7 on the front grille? If so, was it in wire or painted? Any ideas where to find a correctly shaped 7 from the original Lotus? B$%¨&&*s to cat...its a Lotus 7 replica and I dont care!

I am considering cutting from sheet ali with a jigsaw! lots of work I know...

you can buy one new from caterham for around £30-35 if you want the non-locost route..

although it is an old style nose cone

ill tell you what im going to do with my grille.................
get some aluminium honeycomb mesh, and cut a stencil out of card with the required logo, and spray black paint through the stencil - will get a similar look to tennis rackets.....
worth a shot?
Tom

I made a template of the inside of the nosecone and had a grill made up to the template and had stainless 7R mounted on cross bars then put black mesh behind it. After the SVA of course

I'd rather not put a 7 in the nose as its like pretending ive got something I havn't. I'd much rather show the would I had an MK than pretent I have a Lotus/Caterham.
