Inventor Texture / Appearance - Show one face of mesh texture only, not both

I have a mesh texture shown below and I want to only show the mesh bars on one side of the part so it doesn't show twice like in the screenshot below (note I am not worried about the edges of the part, just the main faces). Does anyone know how to do this or a work around to get it to display correctly. Also, deleting a face of the part and making it a surface is not an option as the mass / volume is required for other things.

 

I have tried making the back face transparent / glass but it just removes the transparency and makes it white with mesh  bars on top.

 

Any help is appreciated.

 

Thanks, Matt.

 

I'm using Inventor 2018 Pro Build 284 2018.3.2

Windows 10

Hello Matt,

Try to switch to Realistic visual style and it might be helpful.

Thanks!

Hi Xun, see the below screenshot showing the realistic screenshot. It still shows the texture on both faces which means the mesh bars still double up.

 

Thanks, Matt.

Hello @matt_jlt!

 

Could you maybe upload the part file so we can check what other options you have?

 

Thanks!
