thanks dude. i think the wed site is good enough. i debating on buying one off him or finding the mesh and fabricating one myself, either way thanks for the hook-up.

make it yourself, that's what he does I bet. He probably goes to home depot, makes a few bends and cuts and jacks the price up 10x.

and a close up, you can see the fingerprints from where i spraypainted it chrome and didn't feel like waiting for it to dry.

go to lowes and get some gutter guard (keep leaves out of gutters). then just cut it to size.

did you cut out the plastic or leave it in? how did you fasten it in?
i thought i would hide blu fog lights behind mesh on small side fog light holes. what do you think?

ok ok, so gutter stuf will work?
because the last time i looked gutter guard, it looked like it was too narrow. i mean in hight.
is there someother mesh i can get?
i want big thing, so i can cut it from to fit perfectly.

i'm in the same situation, i dont want to spend $40 for piece of mesh from the car parts store for somthing that costs about 50 cents or les to make,its bullshit. i live in what they call steel city home of the STEELERS you'd think i could find somthing, i checked all hardware stores, found gutter shit and some thicker mesh fo making cages and stuff but pieces are only like 24" long. the perfect stuff(that i cant find is) stuff made to reinforce stucco walls, if you find tell me were.

just go to lowes and buy some gutter guard (used to keep leaves out of raingutters). for mine i just left the plastic in, used really small screws to hold it straight to the plastic, theres many other ways to do it though.

the 40 buck screen is the exact same sheet as the gutter guard. the stuff thats cut specifically for the car is more than that.
