Heh, I have no idea how the old owner managed to actually dent the fan
screen this bad, so don't ask

Here's a comparison pic:

New one was bought from Pinballlife, it's a NOS part.

Amazing difference, eh? I'm going to clean, oil, replace the
screen/grille, replace the decals so my fan SHOULD be like-new once I'm
done!

Bye!

Don't they have chicken wire and tin snips in Brazil? I can't believe
you had something shipped that I could buy at any hardware store!

Well, unlike you, I'm not an adept of the "cardboard fixing methods".

I would rather buy a NOS part that I am 100% sure will look perfect,
than just use some other material that might not match and/or will look
horrible.

That's easy. Punch the fan. (seriously)
