Protecting My Baby!!! (10w7)

Alright guys, now JL Audio is the smartest of the smart out there, my w7 outperforms just about anyones system around here, and ive got one 10. but the nerds at JL didnt think, hey were makin a 600 dollar sub, lets make a grill that fits it. Well i need one cuz my W6 got destroyed. Anyone got any ideas or know someone who makes them, theres one for a 12w7 on ebay for fuckin 125 bucks, what a rip. im thinkin bout headin to home depot and seein what i can rig up, might make a plexiglass creation!
we will see
let me know any ideas or someone whos done it
thanks
john

Build a panel over the box that extends 3" pas the front of the speaker. Cut out a window and put protective grill in the window, then cover it with grill cloth!

Turn the box around and have it fire towards you, and not towards the rear of the car. No loss of sound quality, no rattle's from the spoiler, no item's floating around to touch/damage the sub, plus a free back massage to boot whilst driving down the highway
