Has anyone fitted mesh to the air intake on a Tam? The radiators look extremely vulnerable to stone damage on the standard car but how chavvy would it look with mesh I wonder?

Not chavvy at all so long as it was black mesh and mounted well inside the front cavity.
Anyway chavviness is in the eye of the beholder.

I've always put wire mesh infront of the rads in all my TVRs.

The Tam has it also.

You can't see it and it eliminates the worry over stone damage to the rad.

Buy the galvanised small hole type from garden centres.

I don't think so - I can't remember as it's been at the menders for about a month. Hopefully should get it back in time for Chatsworth with a nice shiny re-built engine.

Took the plunge & fitted the mesh & have to say I think it looks great as well as doing a job!
