Louvered Panel Source

As I'm moving from an enclosed generator from Generac to a bare Honda I have to box in the area. I'm good on the front as I'm just going to add hinged doors. The rear has to accomodate the cooling of the generator and I'm looking for a source for a louvered panel. Any ideas? The panel will be approximately 16"hX34"w and will be fixed.
I'm planing to retain the screen panel out front until I find a craftsman who can build me something that will echo the shape of the bottom of the rig.
So... who's your metal fabricator?

Glen --- check around for an auto restoration company or Custom Hot Rod shop. Many of these have the equipment to make louvers.---pieman
