Fitting a custom mesh grille
I destroyed my stock bumper, so I ordered an aftermarket from Garm, I was wondering what the best way was to mount the custom grilles im cutting from black wire mesh (pending prices) to the openings on the bumper (fiberglass)
Just wanted to get a good idea so when it gets here I can get the grilles in and prime it without too much hassle. If this is posted somewhere already, forgive me, I searched some but probably not as much as I should have. Thanks |

If there is no mounting points i would just bend the wire around the inside and just expoxy it in place. Use something like quicksteel you can buy it from kragens. Thats kinda what i did when i have my 240sx. I installed a mesh grill on all the bumper openings. Just used that chicken wire stuff that you get cheap at home depot and painted it flat black.

Another option you be to fiberglass on some small rings on the inside so you can attach the mesh with cable ties.

here is my problem, im posting pics of my damage, gotta figure out a way to get that dent out of the rear panel, the bumper was an easy fix, just order another super duper specialicious one. lol
If anyone knows if I can reach that panel from the inside to bang it out, that would be awesome, just want to ask before I rip out the interior trying. Edit: And yes I know my rears are bald. |
