Wire mesh stone guards for fogs?

Does anybody know where to buy a wire mesh stone guard for the fogs similar to the ones on the Saleen Gurney edition?

looks great, some thing I have been thinking about doing, did you put any thing between the fog light and the mesh? I am worried about it rubbing on the fog light and scratching it, also how did you attach it.

Aluminum gutter guard that is available at Home Depot and/or Lowes will work, and you wouldn't have to paint it. I used it in the Roush hood scoop opening on my FX4.

Hey Texas where in TX are you from, a couple of friends down here in the valley are going to organize a BMC photoshoot sometime next year. And to answer your question i made the mesh to the size of the foglight opening on the back of the grille and not the light itself so I just slid it in and put the foglight ontop of it. The mesh does not move around without really trying to turn it so i do not worry about it scratching the lens.
