In a pinch, quarter inch galvanized hardware cloth with the square hole mesh cut to shape and installed at 45 degrees to the centerline of the car would look and work pretty much the same.

Mr. Seamstress (he who takes a pic of his balls hanging out of his shorts - almost - and then posts said pic on a message board for the world to see ), they appear to be available, and are stupid expensive from Porsche - $260.00 a side is beyond ridiculous for what they are.

The galvanized steel quarter inch square mesh hardware cloth I can buy by the foot off a 3 foot wide roll at a local hardware store here is 100% exactly the same as the stuff under the tail grill in my car. It's mounted in the tail so the mesh is at 45 degrees to the centerline of the car.
I am pretty sure it's the same in a friends 930 too. Porsche may put a skinny little rubber trim around thew edge of it so you don't cut your hands on it.

^^^ Exactly - there is nothing fancy at all about the OEM tail mesh. For Porsche to charge over 5 bills for something so simple makes zero sense. I understand the "high performance & low production" costs of ownership associated with exotic machines, but for something that is not high performance, and so basic in design and construction, the price is ludicrous.
