well I got the mesh and some epoxy,
Thanks for posting the kind you used. I went to do this before but couldn't find anything.. I found this HUGE 4x8 mesh stuff [whats that for] but never though to look at the gutter section.
I got everything taped up and im at a standstill. I figured I would macgyver something but can't figure out anything that will work to cut it like a grinder which I dont have.

The actual saudi grill is wires woven into a square pattern, but its not just strait wire every peice is zig-zaged.http://www.dap-inc.com/acc/app/new/index.shtml
this isn't close enough to see the zig-zags but you get the idea

I thought about it, maybe later, keep in mind this went from "I'm bored" to "I have an idea" to "done" in about 5 hours. the temp gauge looks like it might be sitting a hair lower

just wanted to say this agian..
GLUING IS THE WORSE PART OF THIS MOD.
seriously I thought it would take a good hour to complete. Im waiting for the fricken glue to dry, I got the loctite 5min stuff.. More like 5 hours.. Its still fricken wet, however places where i didn't want it to go it dried INSTANTLY... Oh and I still have no idea how you got tape to hold it down.
