Old fashioned bug screens?

[DBoyd]

Would anyone know where I can find the old fashioned bug screens that fasten on the front of a vehicle with elastic cords?? I have an old one that is 24" tall by 80" wide with the ends hemmed and eyelets installed for the elastic cords. I use one when I am on a trip to attach on the grill guard and protect the whole front end from smushed critters. As anyone knows down here in S. TX. the love bug and dragon fly and butterfly seasons are tough on a front end and radiator etc.

Thanks for your help.

I just bought some stainless screen from HomeDepot and rigged it up behind the grill with some 1/8" steel (old electrical fishtape) and used tie wraps to secure it. Works well for the last year or so. Just hose it off. Nice and cheap and does the job...

Try Wal-Mart. I have found them there in the past and they are fairly cheap-- around $5 or $6 I think.

Try checking out the Lund stainless grill covers - the slots are small enough to stop major bugs without restricting airflow.
