That site says, and I quote, "Replacing grille cloth should not be attempted as a DIY project", really? In all honesty if someone can't figure out how to install their own grille cloth then they should probably pick another hobby like collecting stamps. It's something that anyone could figure out with some spray contact adhesive and some practice with a scraps of old cloth and plywood. In any event I have seen other sources from Britain and Europe that sell reproduction grille cloth so I would be very surprised if this "gentleman" had anything the others did not.
Regards
Arran
