I got the powder coated one from DMC a couple years ago. Well I just took my fascias off for a repaint and that rock screen looked like hell. Bent up and rusty. Their website says the stainless one is discontinued due to low sales. I actually don't like the shiny look, but rusty is worse. Anyone know where to pick up a stainless one?

These screens are around, did you try calling Rob Grady or other vendors?

I checked on Rob's site since I remember him having them a while back but they aren't on there now. I haven't gone the calling route, that's next. Kinda putting out a feeler for a used one $$ :p

Ah, thanks. I'll take a look.
PS..how long have you been waiting?

You have to call Rob, not rely on the site. Going used is great, but I'd doubt there are any out there laying around.

Good luck!

Hopefully a vendor is reading this post and will bring a few (SS and black painted SS) to the DCS. I'll buy one!

This one. http://www.ebay.com/itm/321929705283
Actually, it was only $11 for 40x13 mesh grill. For $11, I was willing to experiment and it worked.
I wish it was 42in wide. Not enough material to mount sides but still looked fine and stay mounted.
You only need a half so if you mess things up, you can redo or give a left over to your friend.

Shipping took several weeks from China.

hmm looks as good, if not better, then the stock mesh. Do you have pics or tip on how you mounted it? Used the stock mesh frame?

I just measured the opening on the spoiler. Looks to be 39 1/4".

I used stock mesh frame to shape the grill and you don't need it after. Grill is soft and malleable. You just need a wire cutter. Bottom was folded inward and top was outer. You need some nuts and bolts to mount f. Sides, you fold inward but not enough material to mount.
It was a pretty easy mod.
I will try to post some more photos later.

That description was good enough actually, I can picture what you mean. I'll order some and give it a try. Thanks
