did anyone put mesh in were the grid is in the front noes of a camaro? anyone got any pics?

 

i did...but my iroc isnt stock..it has a custom front nose on it..i think that if you put mesh in any nose of any car (and its done correct) that it makes it look alot better..

sorry no pics of the mesh but it does look better

 

heres mine

 

Has anyone done this on a trans am?

I figure I will try it, where can I buy that material for cheap?

 

the stuff i bought is like chrome and its made by apc but its not cheap

 

wow that looks subtle, but sweet. Think I may do it to my new Z some time. How much was that sh**. Can you get it in the **** isle of Pep-boys with all the other APC stuff.

 

yeh you can get it at pep boys and advance

 

I have some on mine until I get my billet grille...I'll see If I get time to take some pics.

 

I installed expanded aluminum in my SS hood...

 

i have black mesh on mine because i have a black car. and its cheaper. i got mine at a orchard supply store, its gutter mesh or something like that. i suppose chicken wire would work too if you dont want to spend to much
sorry no pics

 

i think that the mesh would cause an obstruction in the air flow to the induction system as well as cooling will be hindered. just a thought. are you guys that are running this stuff having any problems with cooling?

 

I have mesh in my fender vents......

I used actual gutter guard available at any local hardware store.....then had it painted body color, as to try and hide it a little....

It's has bigger holes, if you are worried about air flow and cooling issues.....

 

that mesh isnt goin to stop much air flow at all much better flow than my rs grill im sure. Plus it will keep debris from gettin up to the radiator.

 

a closer pic

 

the car doesnt get the cooling air from the grill... it sucks it from undernieth the nose of the car. that is why the air dam is so important.

 

I have expanded aluminum on my Ram Air boxes too (although you can't see them because of the foglights).....my car runs fine....dosen't get hot at all....

(car wasn't painted in this pic)

 

I used some metal mesh I got at home depot I think it was.. it's not gutter gaurd, it's ALOT thicker metal then that.. you can't even bend it with out ALOT of effort, I cut it out with a dremel. I forget exactly what it was, but ask a guy that works there if they have any other kind of metal mesh besides gutter gaurd.. I asked him and he helped me out, it was in a different part of the store, you'd miss it easily.

 

u can buy it at home depot or lowes for like 2 dollars and u get 4 ft. that would be retarted to buy it from pep boys for like 30$ just because apc made it

 

i didnt know dome depot sold it with the chrome look

 

they dont but id still rather pay 2$ for it and polish it myself... its flat and wouldnt take long at all
