I have 6 sets of this stuff for sale for only $20. This is the same material that Grill Craft uses to make their $200 grills. The only difference is that you're going to have to figure out how you want to mount it to your car yourself. It is aluminum so it will not rust. Also it comes in standard silver. You can just buy some all surface enamel from Canadian Tire and paint it whatever color you want if you dont want the silver color.

Each set comes with a 4 foot long by 1 foot tall piece of raised 1/2" Expanded Aluminum. Diamond shaped like in the picture. Also you will get a 1 foot long by 4 foot tall piece as well for any extra misc. places you might need it such as fog light spots etc. This is COST. I am selling it for what i bought it for because i dont need all the extra pieces. It comes pre cut and everything. Send me a PM with your phone# if you want one. I'm going to try and get rid of everything quickly so dont miss out.

EDIT: This is NOT the cheap gutter guard crap or the crap you buy at Home Depot that's flimsy like paper.

ok, sorry to jump on threads but i dont like to see people get scammed. but yes you can buy this crap at revy etc...

NO YOU CANT. What did i tell you about opening your mouth?

Thanks man. It's expanded aluminum. It's pretty solid. It is also “raised” which is more expensive and better than regular flat. It's not the "metal lath" that you can get at Revy. That stuff is like tin foil and it rusts and looks like crap etc. This is real material that is used on real grills. Actually, you cannot get expanded aluminum at any hardware store in Calgary. I have tried.

If you look a few months back there was some dude that was selling the same stuff in Stainless for $50 a pop. But Aluminum will do you just as good . The only reason i am selling it is because the only way to get it is in bulk from metal fab shops. For my car i only need 1 piece though so i have extras that i just want to get rid of to make my money back and free up room in my basement. No conspiracy here. If you go to “other places” they will charge $50 for a strip of this stuff.

Thanks for the bump and support Isonex

PS. I already have a decent paying job. I dont need to make money and waste my time by scamming people on bullshit like this

Big is correct ...

Red is ???????

And $20 bucks is a great deal... JB's selling the same size for about 40.

Thanks ae1969. Im sure they're selling one 4x1 for $40. Remember that for $20 i'm giving TWO pieces of 4x1.

Read it and NO way man, chicken wire style is NOT what I am after (no offence, just trying to name the style).

Mine is going to be of a much different style...

Stay tuned, modaholics!

It's not chicken wire or anything you can buy at a home hardware store. I've seen many places online selling 4x1 sheets or smaller of this exact same stuff for $30-$50 US. That's why i managed to get some for myself at this price. I'm just selling off the extra stuff because i have no use for it and it's taking up space. I am not a store trying to make money off it.

It is exactly like this... just so you can understand how it looks and what it is. It's not mesh.

I don't mind this stuff if there's a front mount like that behind it, otherwise why have such a big opening in the first place.
