Default SVA-compliant material for grilles?

Folks,

I'm looking for a material I can use for inserts in my air intakes. It needs to be SVA compliant w.r.t. radius of curvature & sharp edges (or lack thereof). The biggest piece I need is 100cm x 50cm (which I'd prefer to be in one piece). Any recommendations for a product/manufacturer?

Cheers,
Jon.

I saw in one of the kit mags, they asked a supermarket for there shopping trolley. This was for a rad grill. Then put rubber trim around it. Stainless as well.
