It’s all good. I’m an asshole to everyone

mesh looks like ass but I have done something else before. Take a white egg crate ceiling panel for flourescent lights from home depot…
Lay it down lenghtwise, turn it 45 degrees… all the squares not have a “diamond” pattern.
Mark the bumper opening size on the panel with a permanent marker.
I dont know if a 2 X 4 panel will be large enough to cover your opening.
Its large enough to do the bumper on a 03 Cobra but barely.
You will want to mark/cut the piece to have 1-2" or extra material around the border for mounting.
Take a needlenose plier… crimp and twist… the sections will just break… you brake it all the way around … and trim excess later.
Fit the piece… make sure size and fit are to your satisfaction.
Spray paint the thing flat black. You should paint it from at least 8 different directions to get full coverage. I mist from one angle, let it dry for 3 min, rotate, 25 degrees, mist again, and continue all the way around.
Flip piece over and repeat. This way you will get complete coverage with no extra paint… perfect finish.
The panels are cheap and easy to replace and they look very good installed. The are also brittle but that was not much of a issue for me. If you decide not to be lazy and do this I can recommend mounting solutions
