stanski Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 Ho maybe give this company a call? http://www.boddingtons-ltd.com/company/ ... 3godXyd_eQ Quote
Toon Chris Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 Revolution in Gateshead do that specialist grill mesh (350Z Zun Clicky here). Don't know if they have the Z grill in stock but i did see some examples on their wall yesterday and it is just down the road for you. Quote
rtbiscuit Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 i'm looking for a sheet of black anodised mesh as well for my nismo bumper. the zun sport ones are good, but they are made to measure the standard bumper and only the facelift version i think, and i think Ho, like me, just wants sheet of mesh Quote
Bundus Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 May not be the best solution but mine is just normal mesh painted black. Not sure how they painted it but its been on the car a couple months and still looks black with no scuffs or colour changes!! Quote

rtbiscuit Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 i'm going to try and find some woven stainless Quote
rtbiscuit Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 http://www.wovenwire.co.uk/cargrilles.htm this company do stainless woven, just tryng to see if i can find it anodised. reason i would anodise over paint is that paint will chip off especially off stainless. and within 12-18 months runs the risk of looking tatty and needing a respray.

lilsheepshagga_turbo Posted August 11, 2009 Author Posted August 11, 2009 Get some Rabbit netting Ho £56 for 50 metres - bargain! https://4wire.co.uk/product_info.php?cP ... cts_id=197 hahah i was looking all over the shop and i crossed that at like 5 am this morning... holes just look tooo big... are mesh grills necessary on the front of cars or are they there just for "looks" ho Quote
stanski Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 mesh is either for looks but also to protect from stones or debris wacking your radiator elements! Quote
rtbiscuit Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 to stop very big things getting to your rad, like animals and bunnies. also stops stones etc. hence i'm going for the woven and nylon coated. if you want some as well, let me know the size and i'll contact Zun for you. Quote
nurrish Posted December 9, 2009 Posted December 9, 2009 I have been searching for an install guide for a mesh grill.....anyone got any idea's on how it is fixed to the bumper and what needs to be cut out? I have pm'd ifran but any other help will be appreciated Quote

rawbhp Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 I'm interested in this. Has anyone replaced the standard plastic slats with black mesh? Quote
Stew Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 I'm interested in this. Has anyone replaced the standard plastic slats with black mesh? Irfan. If you search for posts by G18FAN you'll see it. Quote
rawbhp Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Does look good, but I'm just not sure I want to cut my front bumper up! I guess it may go over the top of the slats... Quote
rtbiscuit Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 if your going to do that you'd be better off getting a custom built zunsport grill but get them to nylon coat it black. should be a tidier finish. Quote
rawbhp Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 that's where i got the idea, but they only do 2007+ according to their website. I have emailed them though. It's exactly what I'm after. Quote
