Because I don't think black mesh will cover it much, have you thought about spraying the pipe matte black? That's what I did to mine and it looks pretty steathy now Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/286385-front-bumper-mesh-r34-gtt/#findComment-4805329 Share on other sites More sharing options...

(OO)SKYLINE(OO) Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 You can measure up the hole then buy some mesh and cut it up to size and either use some siler flex (Spelling) or a weather proof silicon to hold it down. I am not sure how easy it is to cut mesh, but you might need to get it cut professionaly... Unless you use very sharp wire cutters...

2LV8ETR Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Aluminium mesh is a piece of cake to cut with some tinsnips. I think the product you're referring to is SikaFlex - http://www.sika.com.au/cmi/auto_products_adh.htm which can be bought at most good auto/hardware stores.
