I just received my grill kit from these guys, very nice piece (you can easily pull their little tag off the grill).

-great quality
-pay attention to the year of your car (2006 up v.s. prior years)
-not on my car yet, I can not vouch for fitment at this point

talk to your local friendly autobody shop -- they buy the stuff in bulk and may be willing to sell to you

EDIT: link to a thread with some more possible answers to the same question: https://my350z.com/forum/exterior-and-interior/272905-screen-mesh-for-bodykits.html

I ordered a sheet from http://www.customcargrilles.com/ and chose the Diamond EXTREME Grill Mesh Sheets in a 12" x 48" powdercoated black. I've had no problems and it appears as if it would have been factory. cleans easy too. total cost once you add the powdercoating was around $49

don't know if it shows up on your monitor, but I'll give ya a few pics just incase...

mcnichols. they make ALL the types of grill material. they would be considered as the main manufacturer for all the grill type companies that resell. prob is, they have a minimum order of like $100. so you could sell what you didn't use. they also list the openness of the mesh so you can pic one with good airflow,

Good to know Robert, thanks. I'll have to keep an eye on mine then. I haven't had that problem, though my Z doesn't see nor rain, sleet, or snow
