Anyone know where i can find some? The slightly larger stronger mesh than the supershit stuff is available from our local aluminium supplier here in Ipswich . Dont know your locale but try the same or similar type of outlet in your district.

75coupe Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 security screen doors & flyscreen company... they have a variety of stainless steel mesh in different mesh sizes, wont rust, but you will need a cutting disc on an angle grinder to cut it and a folding press to fold the edges over, but its tough as...

defari Posted December 29, 2009 Author Share Posted December 29, 2009 (edited) ^^ sweet, thats exactly what i want, something sturdy and bendable.. ill hit up a few security screen places. Also, anyone got any tips or suggestions to attach the meshing? I was thinking of something like "tough as nails" around the bent parts of the edges (where the grill will attach to the front kit) Edited December 29, 2009 by defari Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/301662-meshing-for-front-grille/#findComment-5008099 Share on other sites More sharing options...
l_uk3y Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 I used the black mesh from Autobarn on mine. Cut the overall size plus a fraction extra. Bent the outside bits over and sikaflexed. Never had any issues with it (maybe 2 years old now), and being black it doesnt look cheap.
