V8 Bonnet Mesh

Recommended Posts

I'm looking to get some mesh for my V8 bonnet I am in the processes of cutting, trimming and fitting. I've done some googling and seen that most people to mesh it but not sure what size. Looking at black mesh and on eBay have seen:

 

8mm x 3mm Mesh: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/110636675819?_trksid=p2060778.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

16mm x 10mm Mesh: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/110636677028?_trksid=p2060778.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

9mm x 5mm Mesh: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/110636677629?_trksid=p2060778.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

 

I don't know if from the factory they can/do come with mesh (mine didn't) and what the usual size is. Any pointers? Otherwise I'll be drawing the above mesh sizes out on paper and seeing which looks right.

Picked up a nice bit of annodised alloy mesh from B&Q if that helps you?

Any mesh in particular? I'll have a look. Will be the last thing I do. Still trimming at the moment!

They have a display/rack of different types of metal plate in the big warehouses and I think it is the finest gauge they do. It's malleable and easy to work with.

Alloy mesh from halfords is easy to form too

Spray it satin black if you dont want it silver

It's another job for me as well.   I would go for mesh with the smallest holes to prevent stones damaging the radiator, as I have a nice new Polo Alloy jobbee now.
