Hmm, trick photography?
You could always make your own spacer- 4-5mm thick piece of aluminium or CF even (with the correct precautions), then drill a couple holes in it for the mounting screws to pass through (3.5mm), and a larger hole in the middle for the shaft. So long as its done up nice and tight (without being too tight), it should stay mounted perfectly and not let the mesh slip at all- bit of blue threadloc works wonders too...
