Spohn is right, there are numerous ways to go about this. I did some similar on my personal Z a year or so ago to prevent all the debris from messing up my radiator and 25R core on my older 300zx. Probably the best sites I have found for purchasing neat little hardware pieces from are Pegasusautoracing.com and McMaster-Carr. Both sites sell a Stainless Steel mesh that can be attached to the fascia. I personally fit a sheet behind all of the openings on my car and used a quick setting 2-part epoxy to secure it. You can obviously use other methods, but I did not want pop-rivets or screws showing. Here is a link to the SS Wire Mesh offered by Pegasus: - Pegasus Auto Racing Wire Mesh I ended up purchasing a 6 x 6 style SS Mesh for my Z with a 0.132" opening size. I painted it black with some rattle can and epoxyied it on the back side of the fascia. From a distance you can not tell it is there. Up close it looks like an OEM piece. Just make sure to glue and cut the mesh so that the mesh rush both parallel and vertical with the fascia. LOL...do glue it in at an angle or it will look wierd. |
