actually, you wouldn't need to have the edges bent back, some mfr's just use a flat metal grill with the rubber spacers isolating it from the baffle ... the folds do add integrity to the grill, and without them you may want to add another rubber spacer here and there, but either way will work ... a visit to your local sheet metal type shop should accomplish any scenario you desire ... or, just get one from Larry and call it good, he might want your old one as a 'battle souvenier' ...
