Good mesh

With the big opening on my kamanari front you can see to the radiator and the brown spots around where those roller things used to be. I got some mesh from a friend and put it on there but you can still see right through it. Is there any specific company that anyone can recommend that I get some from? I don't want it to be window screen but I also don't want it so you can see right though it as easily as you can now.

I picked up some from ebay. Here's a pic of what mine looks like.



Here's the link to the ebay auction:

And their website: http://www.autodirectsave.com/MeshGrille.asp

I ordered mine on a Monday and received it Thursday. I would definately buy from them again.

use the same mesh but double it, offset the piece behind by a 1/4 inch or so and itll cut the visibility down.

There's some good stuff at hardware stores. Yes, you're probably thinking of chicken wire, but no... check out for some 'screen door' mesh or even 'rain gutter guard'. They come in nice sizable rolls. The quality is durable and ment to withstand rain (as far as the finnish goes). Your mentioned that you don't want it to be see-thru so... I'd recommend the gutter guard and then some screen door stuff to back it up and perhaps another layer to support the screen mesh. Use some washers, bolts and nuts/wingnuts/etc... to finnish it off.

Ive used the rain gutter gaurd before and painted it black, I got tons of compliments on it also. It was like $4-6 for a big sheet at ace hardware.
