Garage
I bought two extra OEM trim pieces to work on. The black trim bit pops off. The center opening was a time consuming task of drilling and dremellng to leave the center spar in place. I filled the back of the center spar ( it's normally hollow) with a cut down chunk of plastic and lots of body filler. It's now solid. The mesh screws to it as well as being stuck at the edges with 3M trim adhesive.

Rear surface painted black. Then several coats of priming, sanding and more primer on the outward facing surfaces. Then final paint and clear coat.

Lots of work but it turned out great. I spread out the prep over a few weekends.
