Correction, It's not the same stuff. It's simular but if you notice that the original mesh's holes are perfectly aligned with each other when you look down it, where the metal lath at HD is not. It's fairly crooked. Also it is made differently than original. The holes are a different shape, and they use galvanized metal @ HD for the lath. If you don't mind the diff. than it's your choice, but make sure you get the 3.4lb mesh and not the 1.7lb because it's thicker and heavier |

Hi all. Philip - you say you called Ferrari. Who did you call ? We can supply (nearly) all your 308 needs from here in the UK with competetive Fedex shipping. Sounds like Home Depot is the answer this time Cheers |

Actually, the source for the wire mesh was already on this site. If you click on "Parts & Service" in the menu at the top of this page, it will eventually link you to www.ferrarichat.com/partsandservice/308PartsXref/ and the info is there. |

Philip, I can tell that english is not your first language. We can understand you fine, but I thought I'd let you know that all those commas are not necessary and actually make reading your text more difficult.

I believe it is the same stuff as at Home Depot. Just need to cut to size and paint. |
