Custom wire mesh for grilles?

Anyone know where to get wire mesh for use with grills? I just got a datasystems grille. The grille is nice, but the plastic insert mesh is crapola. I want to replace it with something like stainless steel mesh that will look good with the diamond graphite. Or I'll paint it black and it will still look better then the plastic egg crate crap I got with my grille.

Thanks.

It is called expanded steel. You can get it at a hardware store, but I recommend getting it from a metal supply shop. If you are in SoCal, Industrial Metal is a great choice. I made custom lower grills for my Audi with it.
