I have to pick up the mesh tomorrow...hopefully will have it done by the end of the weekend..i still have to decide if i want it a solid color or if i want to give it a carbon fiber look...

what i do is glue tabs to the back of the grille that pinch the mesh in place.
then i drille holes in the tabs and secure the mesh down with zip ties. the
ties arent visible at all from the front side of the grille.

Whatever works...it pretty much comes down to how creative you are, and how clean you want it to look in the end.

Ok so i was thinking it might look good if i wrapped the grill in a carbon fiber vinyl..

what do you guys think? or should i keep it a solid color?

Thanks...

solid color unless you go cf hood trunk etc. if your gonna do it, do it. putting some cf just for the looks makes me think rice... go ahead and flame me if you actually like how cf looks.

yea i'm def not a ricer hahaha i was just thinking if it would look decent..just for shits and grins.....

but i might keep it a solid color or just do both and see what looks better since i have two grilles to play around with!

I used epoxy on mine, and then for extra support I used just a regular old glue gun. it's held up through several northeast winters no prob.
