that wont be cupra grille mesh, it is just the same shape/style. the cupra mesh is diamond shape in lower grille then hex/octagonal on top grilles.

the lower grille if this is the on you mean, is thick plastic grille, has a a depth of roughly 1-2cm, so is quite chunky, and is specific shape to fit the bumper.

this stuff should look ok though. i can take a pic of the bottom mesh off the bumper tonight if you like ?

The normal thick stuff won't fit in front of my intercooler that's why Im looking for some thin stuff

ahhh, nice i have been looking for similar, mine fits but is pushed right up against it, and the thick mesh makes it hard to see the cooler, so all that hard work an you can barely see it, but at the same time, the mesh off is full on in your face lol

I know the feeling , some people on here has used the thin stuff and I just need someone that has used it to confirm which one haha

the thing i have wondered though, with the typical aftermarket metal mesh, will it not scratch an damage the cooler aswell ?

 

[ntcupra]

Prob all depends on how much room you got from bumper to the cooler and how well youve attached the mesh

Is there much diffence between the top grille to the mesh?

I ordered some plastic honeycomb stuff from Body-Kit UK which looked good, never arrived, emailed told me to wait a couple of weeks, emailed again and they said I'd have to wait till May.

Sack that, asked for a full refund.

Not so keen on Aluminum mesh, the plastic options look far more OEM and more importantly hide the front mount.
