Hi all
I'm trying to make my 93 916 strada look good again but am having trouble finding the gold/brass mesh used in the tail air vents. my old ones are a bit shabby. So could anybody point me in the direction of a supplier, I don't want them pre made just looking for a flat sheet so I can make my own.

Many thanks in advance

Pete

I got mine from B&Q.
Not sure if they still do it.

Certainly seen it the larger B&Qs, usually nearby a small rack of metal tubing and the like.

That's the stuff, but you can get an A4-sized sheet for a fiver.

In fact, I think I have some at home in the garage you can have if you get desperate!

Whereabouts in the country are you?

Don't have a B&Q here but Ill see if I can do a mailorder thing.

All the best
