SEARCH is your friend!

The mesh isn't TL specific, more like buying a sheet of it and cutting it to fit.

Inaccurate's post pretty much sums up the main grill threads around here.

These are the only two grille mods I have seen that are not custom.

Mesh Grille

Chrome Grille

Mesh is indeed custom.
Making a mesh grille requires chopping off the cross-bar and filling up the holes....

Unless you get the eBay one where you just put on after chopping.
