Trying to get some diamond mesh to fab a grill, not willing to pay 150 for grillcrapt. Anyone know where I can find some expanded diamond metal?

Tried home depot, ashby lumber and a couple random places.

 

Kragen......or.....if all else fails "EBAY!"

 

Industrial Metal Supply. Uh, if those even exist in the Bay Area. Something similar would work. Basically, wherever fabricators and metal workers buy their metal. A place like that.

 

This place has some that matches the STI grill mesh pretty well. Didnt chip on me either.

any idea which 1 matches sti?

 

Think I had the Diamond XXL one. The Hex one looks like it would match better though.

 

go to any hardware store and ask for wire mesh there are all different kinds. i did the mesh for my hood scoop it looks clean and keeps allt the **** from getting stuck in my intercooler

 

I went to hardware stores but couldn't find any decent mesh, and I couldn't find any that was big enough for lower grill


Sorry this is for lower grill.

 

Home Depot Or Ne Hardware Store Just Paint It Itll Cost A Few Dollars As Aposed To 50$ The Aftermarket Companies Sells

 

None of them have a sheet long enough, and home depot didn't really have much at all.


50 seems cooler than the 150 for grillcrap that comes with their lame *** logo...barffffff If i had a chevy pickup itd be sweet but

Thanks, but unfortunately they don't seem to show any photos?

 

It's one of those places you have to go and look at. You know, like they did back in the ye olde days. Any excuse to go to a metal supply store is a good excuse. Go. You'll enjoy.

 

O i see. They have somewhere in hayward.
