Where to get RS4 style mesh for grilles?

[NastyNogaro]

I just bought and installed the CXRacing piping kit and I now have room in my bumper for side grilles. Where are you guys picking up the RS4 lookalike mesh? I went to home depot and picked some up but the pattern is way different and I'd like to know where to go (either online or in person) to get a real close looking match.

Thanks in advance.

Home Depot sells this stuff; also known as "chicken wire" or something

Not one local to me. If anyone can get this shit at home depot I will pay you 10% interest on it plus the cost of shipping of course.

Lemme know!

I can send you some probably, I make grilles and this is one of the materials I use, pm me and I can hook you up. It won't be cut to the final shape but it is easy to work with.

Home depot down here sells stuff liek that, The chiken wire somone refered to is way to thin, it looks like shit. I forget the name of it but they do have it. Give me a few hours to dig up the name and pics if i can.

Item #LL0019 is what I used. Price of it has gone up from $44 to $66. It also doesn't come painted.

And shipping from LLTEK is $$$$ no matter what you buy. I'd sell you mine but with my new setup, the FMIC should have room for grilles.

home depot.... they sell a sheet of 24"x24" for like 19 bucks. It's called "expanded metal" and you'll find it at the hardware section

There you go thanks. It looks like this.

Update:

I got the expanded metal 24x24 sheet from Hope depot. Was enough for the 2 side grilles but not enough for the middle opening. I think it still came out good, although in the process, both of my epoxy-ed on washer caps broke off

And yes, I know, one day I will get rid of the rieger. For now, it looks better than it did. The expanded metal matches pretty well, although the RS4 is a bit thicker in pattern and depth.

hey,

you got e-codes!

take those grills back out and buy 2 cans of rubberized undercoating and spray the hell out of them then paint them. it will give you that thicker look you are looking for.

I'm rocking OEM RS4 mesh from PureMS.com.
Nothing but good from them.

sorry for the cell pic. I left it unpainted, I think it looks pretty good.

That's why you buy the stuff from mcmaster, because it's thick enough. And matches the best.
