The Bottom 3 holes are fairly easy.

There's a How to on Aleromod Upgrades. As for the middle, I'll leave it to Bdyman or someone else who knows bodywork on how to do this properly, but I'd strongly advise against it. |

cutting it out, easy. get a dremel.
making it look good (as in making it NOT look like you cut it out with a dremel) REALLY HARD.

That's not very hard, but it looks dumb to me, that vent won't do anything performance wise. Its about as usefull as an autozone stick on vent

Yeah it wouldn't be hard to do, but really pointless.
Behind that part of the bumper is an empty space. It wouldn't even give more cooling

I think that's due to the more squarness of it because that was one of my first thoughts too.
The underlying grille mesh is good, eventually want to do it to mine but the one between the lights looks kinda gay. It'll look like the Pontiac GP's where their grill was there and even on those where they were built like that it looks gay. Just my 2 cents

Can go to hone depot type store and believe in concrete isle they have big sheets if it like 8x10 dunno how big factory holes are might just be able to get away with the rolled up stuff that's like 6"s wide.

Go into depot or lowes and ask for aluminum gutter guard. I think the sheets are something like 6"x36". |

That's what I used. I took the front bumper off, cut the shapes and sizes I needed, and I think I like the overall look better than if I'd used metal mesh. |

It would look ok if you just did the mesh on the bottom, but don't put any grille mesh in between the headlights because imo that would look totally stupid and gay.
