Those WS6 hood grilles with the slots were from a company called HPA. But I don't think they have a site anymore. I did see them on ebay last week, maybe they are still there.

You can go to HD or Lowes and pick up some steel mesh material. It can be found near the rain gutters. Cut it to size and put it in place. That's what I did with mine and it looks good. Subtle difference but definitely better than the honeycomb.

That Gutter-Guard stuff works pretty good. I did that on my 02 Z when I pulled the plastic grille out.
