S4r rad protector

Finally made one, similar to nattys but silver and i wedged it between the ends instead of taking off the fans to bolt on

4 zip ties secure the corners incase it works loose, seen someone else use them on a rad to as theyre nylon hope they dont melt.

I like it what u think? Im also thinking of some trim to finish off the top and bottom of the mesh. If anyone else attempts it wear gloves to as my hands are cut to ribbons

Got some smaller diamond mesh for the oilcooler to do tommorow

Looks good, where did you get the mesh.

On the rad it is wedged wetween the ends and held at each corner with a tie by passing it thru the gap between the last fin and the rad ends.

On the oil cooler is simply wedged in not fallen out yet
