Woven stainless steel wire mesh.

[bigBADbenny]

I'm beginning research on modding a grille with woven stainless steel wire mesh, in the style of Bentley's and Jaguar R series.
I'm looking for an appropriately sized piece of mesh to suit a grille. Here's a link to a local manufacturer:

I'd like to match the wire thickness and pitch to the OEM sports grille, if possible.
I believe this mesh is rather expensive so I'd rather not get the 2 meter minimum as stated of that website.
So great if anyone here uses this stuff at work and could sell me an offcut!
I haven't yet contacted local manufacturers - thought I'd ask here first
Ideas anyone?

Bump! I now have a couple of grilles to mod
Or suggest me some stainless steel fabricators, truck grille merchants or vintage car restorers that may use this material.

I noticed on the weekend that both autobarn and SCA were clearing out all their SAAS grill mesh at 50% off or thereabouts.

Have you checked their mesh out?

Ima getting confused with these multiple threads

OK I'll merge the threads

I'll take a peek at those SCA and AB meshes, but I'm looking for s3x spec mesh, finished product a la Jag XF grill... VIP style...
