Cool TS owners

What did you guys do w/ the mesh situation? Should I go to HomeDepot or should I purchase it for 60 bucks shipped from customautomesh.com ?

I can purchase mounting hardware from them too... for those of you who purchased from a home improvement store any specific types you guys went w/ as far as mesh and mounting hardware?

Thanks in advance!

Don't get the cheap crap from Homedepot.

Go to:
www.customautomesh.com

It's a thick plastic, and doesn't chip when hit with rocks, etc... No need to paint, just put it on.

I have this on my Top Secret bumper.
