Okay, I have a question! Where can you find body kit mesh besides online and at home depot??? I found some at Pep-Boys but it was like $40 for 3 feet...don't wanna pay that much! Any advice would be great:)

If you're going to put it on your 8, I'm not telling you where else it can be found :)

I just don't understand the importance of putting chicken wire on your car... :dunno:

^Because you're keeping chickens in it just in case you get hungry...

Only place I think mesh looks awesome on the 8 is in the back if you cut out the holes and put mesh there; Im doing that over the winter.

lol, some of you are funny...but honestly, I just wanted to know where I could get some. The reason why I'm putting "chicken wire" on my car is because I'd like to camouflage the visible "hardware" that you wouldn't see otherwise unless you took your bumper off....I have no doubt that is will look good. but of course, we're all entitled to our own opinions!

Not quite "mesh", but the Racing Beat radiator and oil cooler screens are functional and nice:

What kind of bumper do you have?

I don't know what these people are talking about. The mesh over the oil coolers and rear lower bumper looks good to me.

totally fine... black mesh is 100% better than that silver/chrome stuff people throw on civics...

Oh, that's lovely! That looks as if it has a different pattern, but yes...I have the middle mesh and the two sides have nothing on them...you can see through to all the "ugliness" or whatnot...that's why I think mesh will help...great pic!

woooo okay, because i would only want the mesh for protection, and if i had to have it, it might as well be suntle and still look good! :lol2:

yeah depends on what you want to do exactly the racing beat "covers" is good but if you're looking to do the whole thing maybe try ebay might have something cheap

I agree but I got the aluminum inserts, theyre nice n thick wont rust or dent like mesh might and once you cover over the plastic with these you cant tell if its solid behind them or not and they install in 5 minutes. I got them from here

they have do it yourself mesh for $20 also

This is exactly how my car looks out back:
