Sure! It's just expanded metal mesh from Home Depot. I used aluminum, I think it's intended use is for gutters.
  • I pulled the whole fender liner out
  • Determined the shape I wanted based on the bracing behind the radiator.
  • I cut the liner with a cutoff wheel. I wanted the corners rounder than they ended up. I used a 1/2" drill bit, it would have looked better with a full inch.
  • I had to cut out some of the original radiator shroud so the air could pass straight through. I used a hacksaw blade. A dremel would probably be better.
  • Cut my mesh to shape
  • Drilled some holes, and riveted it in place.
