I dont believe he means chicken wire from Home Depot. They have many different kinds of wire mesh there. I would think he means something more along the lines of a masonry application with the tight diamond pattern on it.

I posted some links above. You won't find anything better than that. I highly doubt anyone is making "2gb eclipse mesh bumper hole covers."

BTW forgive me for being ignorant above, you could also attach the mesh the right way with screws. :wall:

you can go to autozone and get a big sheet of grill mesh and then cut it to fit. It is like 5 by 5 or something like that. Just a thought

honestly homedepot is the way to go...u spend 5 bucks...get some rustolium whatever color u want the grill and paint it...thats what i did with mine...worked just fine...or u could go and spend 50 bucks and get a mesh one..or just say screw it and put the frm intercooler in, looks better i think

I am all for the stock look. I dont like the look of the grills added in. I think they look cheap. But that is IMO.

I feel the same way about body kits on our cars. Just dont look good.

i feel the same way . the stock look on the gst is nice. thats the way mine is. cf F1 fenders, CF OEM hood is abou tall ill upgrade to. i just dont like the openings on the front bumper. especially the fmic opening and i dont have the foglight bezels either or foglights so its kinda plain.

Plain is the last word that comes to my head when I see a 2gb bumper. :D
