MTX grille?

I own a pair of 12" MTX Terminator subwoofers and I am looking for speaker grilles that will fit them. I don't want the waffle ones. I am looking for some cool looking ones. Either black or chrome. Will different companies fit different subs? Here is a picture of them for reference.

You could probably use these, they are a little pricey but they also look pretty good and will protect the subwoofers.

I have some similar to these. They mount outside of the subwoofer.

That 4 bar grille looks pretty cool and sturdy. Do they make anything that will flush mount to the sub?

Wouldn't want it too close. There is quite the "throw-out" on a sub when you hit the low hz range! Put on something that hits 20hz and take an eye shot from above, you'll be quite surprised as to how far out it goes

**Ok... just saw a pick of your subs...lol You want those in the link bud

I think I like the black over the chrome look. I like to keep a small car jack in the trunk, scissor jack sucks, and some small things like a cross tire iron and stuff like that. will those grilles work?

It says in the ad that it "fits any 12 inch speaker" so it should. Plus, in the picture it seems like there is plenty of clearance.

Ok so the bar ones it is. was hoping for more coverage but these terminator subs move ALOT when the bass is really hammering. Don't want it hitting the grill.

Thoughts? They look like they will fit my subs.

What kind of stuff will you be putting in the trunk? Usually the three bars would be enough.

There is not enough room between the two subs for me to use the bar grills as they don't mount flush against the edge of the sub so I will have to think of something else.

Another option would be to just turn the subs around, facing the front of the car. I noticed this also helps with less trunk rattle.
