Take a look at this post where I needed some, there were a couple of good sources
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...highlight=mesh
I ended up getting some mesh at a place (off top of my head) called McNichols who sells metal sheeting, and other metal products. They've got a warehouse in Charlotte and I was able to just pick it up.
This is the mesh I got from them and had my bodyshop cut it to fit.
You can see a bit more of it here (powdercoated black chrome)

I googled "universal grill mesh honeycomb" and got some results such as this: http://www.parts4vws.com/catalog/pro...rtNumber=41110 It's a 39 x 14 inch sheet of honeycomb mesh for $65.
Two more

Thanks - I don't have it all broken down as I had other stuff done at the same time... just guessing though"
full big sheet of mesh ~$120 (I had more to use it on than just the grill)
powdercoating $50 - 100
Cutting and fitting $25

Just FYI,
I just called Rod Millen and they sell the mesh for their grill and bumper for $25. It is a 9" x 36" sheet I thought it was a little pricey for the size but it comes powder coated black. Most places will charge at least $25-50 to powder coat that size. With the powder coating it not a bad price.

the mesh on L-tune grills looks much better.
