I've bought white grill cloth from Parts Express before, nice cloth but it was a bit finer weave than the stock CX frets. At least the ones I have are a more coarse textured cloth.

I'm afraid I'm recovering from the BeoVirus. Sad

Oh, they have pics. It looks little different, but how thick is it doesnt show.

Problem here is that all frets I found were too thick, should be thinner... Thats why I asked if somebody has experience about these.

Well, trying might be only possibility

If you belive it is useable thin, why not. Very kind of you. Just send expences and I pay with paypal.

I dont need much... If it is 66" wide, for CX 7,5" shold be enough.

The fabric is thin and double knit (stretch in both directions), I have been using red and black on S45s and 3702s, I have also tried black from Parts Express, which is not really Black, but has a very very dark bluish shine to it, but the same thin quality.

If anyone else is interested, I still have lots of brown, gray and white, and a little beige.
