All I could find was the mesh material in this size, I don't know where I can get mesh with larger holes in it. Should I go with all silver mesh, or all black? Silver seems kinda ricey to me especially with the small hole mesh. Someone suggested that I make the upper grill blue and leave the lower ones in black or silver? Can someone photoshop the various looks for me?

Default This is what you should too in my opinion..

Trash that mesh you have and get some large cross hatch mesh and have it painted and installed. The smaller mesh looks terrrible...think chicken wire. You can go to any hardware store and buy it...it's called Expanded Steel. Then just paint it with some plasti-cote paint so it won't chip.

Default go with expanded metal mesh paint it black looks close to RS4 mesh...

You can do a search and find the part # for the Mcmasters mesh which goes very well.
