just found my tape measure i need 30cm x 65cm had a poke around of flebay but not sure if i should just spend abit extra to make sure its good grade stuff and not damaged in the post i.e get in for halfords

Despite the usual Ripspeed/chav links, it is actually real good mesh and does the job on a big mouth conversion admirably.

Yup - I used some P.U. glue of which Tiger Seal is a known brand. I'm sure I just used a more generic brand the garage I use had - PUFlex I think it was called.

No chipping on black halfords

I didnt need to bond min either 4 self tappers and 4 penny washers did the trick

Would mind seeing some pics when it's done - or even a guide

My black mesh has been on for a good 3 years or so and no chips obvious. Easy enough to blob on some black touch up paint though if it did.
