My take on a mesh grille

[xnick]

I wanted something there, but I wasn't a fan of the stainless or chrome mesh look. I think it looks great now... I tinted the fog lights to match.

what did you use?

what did you use?

That's a very good question... my uncle decided to dump a whole roll of this off at my garage (he builds houses, so it's something for that). It had this mesh with a fabric attached to one side which I ripped off.

ah, I can tell you it's likely one of two things - it's either for rain gutters (keeps leaves/trash out and just lets water in), or it's for home ventilation such as under eaves or roof overhangs etc.

Plastic or metal?

Plastic.. I don't think it's for the gutters, because it came in a roll that's about 4x30 feet

how did you attach it?

screws and zipties

Did you pull the bumper?

Nope, put the front of the car in the air a little bit and got under it. Wasn't easy, took me about 30 minutes for the middle piece and an hour on each side to get it perfect.

That looks fantastic, Exactly what I want to do (mentioned it on another thread where somebody put silver mesh in, that I thought it would look better black) I'm a fan of custom mods that still look possibly factory.

I might just go to home depot or lowes today.

Subtle, cheap, functional, and pleasing to the eye. Did the same on mine. Swing and a hit matey!

Seems to look alright! Did a pretty good job of getting everything nice and straight. I prefer the black mesh to the aluminum mesh. Aluminum mesh, I find, tends to look a little out of place on an Alero.
