Default screen / mesh size use on brake ducts / intakes, etc... whatto get?

I took apart the air scoop on my supercharged 93 and was amazed how much leaves and crap was crammed up in there to the airbox.

I need to put some kind of screen in there.

What kinds of screens do you all use to shield your brake ducts and stuff?

the lightweight wire Lowes sells for keeping leaves out of gutters is great for small opening, like brake ducts. For radiator openings, make sure you shape whatever you use to keep the surface area as high as possible. In other works, a curved shape (up into the shroud) is better than just a flat piece straight across.
