I'm after some mesh/grille to go in the vents on my bumper.

The sport grille uses 20x10mm and ideally I'd like to match it.

The nearest I've found is 16x10mm but that's a bit too square for my liking.

Can anyone get hold of some? Or even just point my in the right direction?

I'd also like it pre-painted in black as it will be hard to paint with a rattle can.

you mean the legana?

i think you can buy the mesh by itself.

Well it's for the Legana yes, but the stuff it comes with is different to the Lexus Sports grille.

Lexus sport grille is like this...

Legana grille is like this...(it's also what they use on the TTE bumper)

That's a very kind offer Jomo, but I'm going to need a bit more of it than that. I need enough to fill the 3 cutouts in the bumper as pictured below...(approx. 150x20cm in total)

EDIT: Although having re-thought this, I'm going to have to change the mesh in the sport grille anyway because I don't want the 'sport' badge in the corner, which is bonded onto the paint. So I'm going to have to replace the whole lot anyway. But I'd still like it to be close to the size of the sport stuff.

There is a bend in it that runs top to half way where im pointing, but the rest is un-cracked!
