I bought black powder coated material from customcargrills.com, and custom cut it to cover my radiator and HE. Look very good to me, and you have to get up close to tell it is there.

Why don't you take a picture of it from a distance rather than that close up? That way we can see if we can notice it or not.

Nice, what size diamond mesh did you use? And how did you mount it? Thanks in advance, Wayne

+1 on the mounting question. This is how I was thinking of going, but not sure how to mount it. Would love ideas on how to mount quickly, as well as dims, if it's not a precise cut, as I'm going to be picking mine up and driving it up the Alcan. It would be nice to have a solution that I could do a quick install on, at least to cut down on the rocks and big bugs until I get it home. Would really appreciate a tech writeup with pics? Please?

That's exactly what I was looking for, I will get some of that.
Thanks
