Default Refrigerator exhaust vent

The refrigerator exterior exhaust vent on most hilo's use a stamped grill which is very restrictive for air flow and does not have proper waterproofing. After removing the grill and inspecting the area, I had water damage at my lower rail below the grill.
I hand built a louver grill which allows more free area for more air flow and proper waterproofing with the louver design.
Because the the factory installed the wrong size grill for the opening, I had to adjust the size of the flanges to cover the discoloration of the fiberglass and old screw holes.
