both sides, the part number is 2458Z51020. It has no patterns or markings, just a simple grid.

The part number is 2458Z51040 for both sides.
Grids with markings?
3. The AKG K712 Pro and the K702 65th Anniversary Edition have their number on the grille. The K712 Pro has an orange edge, the K702 65th Anniversary Edition has a blue edge. Because the number is closer to the front on both sides, the grilles has left and right versions.
Part numbers are 2458M97080 and 2458M97090 for left and right of the K712 Pro, and 2458M97070 and 2458M97060 for left

Part numbers are 5049040 and 5049041 for left and right of the Black Edition, 5065866 and 5065867 for left and right of
the Red Edition.
5. All the Q701 variants (Black, Green, White) have the same black grid (2458Z51060) on both sides, with the “Q" logo in the middle
(2458Z73030), as a reference for Quincy Jones.
