Hello All, proud of myself today, finished both sides, used 1/4 inch wire, looks very good, more impressive is I did not scratch nor cut myself on that stuff, almost as bad as concertina, also thought I had every tool I would ever need, but picked up some metal shears, very handy cutting that stuff, tomorrow gonna try the CHF, if no rain

FR3 grille screen

I also saw that the new FR3 gallery shows a grill screen, so I contacted Forest River and they said, Sorry there is not a retrofit kit available.

Thanks for the Suggestion

After seeing everyone elese handywork, I installed mine this past weekend. Crazy easy and looks great! I was going to paint it black, but the galvanized looks good inside the black grill, next to the grey exterior.

Yes. But be sure to drill your holes at the top of the grille opening. It'll look better.
