Most home centers sell that material and sell it as "gutter guard". It's pretty easy to mold into the shape of the brake duct openings and the oil cooler opening.

Easy button…good quality and ready to go. I used them on my Mk4.

I ordered a set from FFR a couple of years ago and got one horizontal and one vertical orientation. Called the up and they sent a replacement set right away, but one had a tear in it. I was able to use one from each set to make one good set.

I went with the Breeze units because they also make a screen for the oil cooler cutout, and I wanted the three to match.

Since Factory Five is out of stock, I'm going with ya'lls suggestion and ordered a sheet from amazon.com. Going to try and make my own.
Thanks again, Tim

It does come in many sizes (hole size) and patterns, my first order I didn't car for the size so reordered a smaller hole aize.
It also comes in a roll so I unrolled it and placed it under a rug over night to flatten it and make easier to work with, cuts easy with cut off.
I ordered enough to protect condenser and also inside the side vents (always hated seeing inside the vents) 169850169851
