I used plastic garden fencing stuff from Home Depot. It was green when I got it but I used Krylon Fusion black paint and it looks good. Its easier to work with than metal mesh and it's got the same honey comb design as alot of stock cars.

Either use bondo or mesh clips. You can get mesh clips from home depot.

Bondo is basically body filler. Putty that hardens up that's meant to fill in dents or cracks and ****. You can get it @ any automotive store (Autozone, Kragen, Pep Boys). Im pretty sure home depot carries it as well.
