Like if there's a tear in the screen... how difficult is it to repair that?

Use liquid stitch to temporaraly repair it, give it back to who ever owns it followed by a "what'd you do" when it tears again.

what kind of cab is it?

show a picture of the cab so i can tell what kindof fabric it is.

if it's like the silver woven fender style screen it can be expensive, but you could always just buy a square yard of fabric and make a new grille out of it with a staple gun. Works and looks good and doesn't effect sound.

alot of people have been doing that with urban camo fabric.

It looks like this

looks like the fender? or like the mesa?


The mesa would be slightly easier to fix.

excuse me, the mesa.

I would say find similar fabric at a fabric store, peel the molding off in one piece, staple the new fabric on, and glue the molding back in.

That's how I would approach this, and probably how most repair stores would too short of sending it out.

if you want to repair just the tear on the existing cloth, good luck, that compound fabric is a pain in the ass.
