Where to buy mesh inserts for front bar?

[Downforce]

Does anyone know good places to buy some flexible metal "mesh" to put behind the openings in my front bar? (to reduce stone chips and debris damaging cooler core)

[inark]

just go to autobarn or repco.. they have mesh in 1m by 60 or something like that... thats where i got the mesh for my 32... the holes arent like fine mesh which is what i liked...

[Downforce]

Excellent thanks for that, I didnt think Autobarn would have that sort of stuff! Sounds like the one I want too, I dont want the holes in the mesh to be too small either

[doxximus]

yeah they have in different colours and stuff as well

you could always try a security door place and get off cuts (thats where i got mine from as we used to make security doors years ago and still had scraps )

Go to www.metalmesh.com.au they do all the mesh for HSV and FPV. A lot better quality than that autobarn ricer fast and furious wanna be sh|t.

just heard an ad on triple m:

"steel and mesh, steel and mesh, when you're looking for the best... there's one place to go that's wolters (with an O)"

kinda sad, sorry.

but that may help you out

the autobarn mesh is pretty expensive for how much you get. would hardly cover the front bar. they also sell it at supercheap in 3 colours...

Nah been there done that All the stock is Steel mesh for framing and slabs work etc.

i went to the metal extruder place, part of the locker group in moorabin. they do the mesh for ford etc. but wanted $44 for a 1200 x 900 sheet. all i needed was 800 x 250 for grill. if you got balls just wander around the back and ask where the offcuts are.

I bought mine from sydney special vehicles they do all the hsv's n stuff you get a 1200 by 1200 sheet for $50 cos autobarn wanted $30 something for a sheet that wouldnt be tall enough for the cooler

its only silver

anyone see me in hot 4's this month

[Downforce]

Thanks everyone for their suggestions. I found Autobarn sell cheap 120cm x 20cm sheets for $15, or 100cm x 30cm for $30. I havent checked out repco yet.

Coastlife? your skyline was in hot4s? I thought they only featured 4cyl. cars. btw, the pic you attached is too small to see the mesh!

Yeah thats metal mesh

I'm after some fine mesh, needs to be a little flexible since i want to put it in my wheel gaurd, fine enough to let air pass through but not let little rocks/stones in

[SKY031]

If you want to be a real tight ass, "GO-LO" sells exactly the same stuff as autobarn, for $10 a sheet.

[edit]

ferni try some places that manufacture security screens.

Security mesh is perfect size, allows good airflow, and can be cut with a regular pair of scissors.
