I wanted that done 2 my car as well. I had a Smash Repair guy do the bottom bit for me. Don't ask me how he did it? I just paid for it which cost me $50. He told me that between the grill couldn't be done. Lucky for me I don't take NO for an answer and I knew in my gut that it could be done. Anyway I found a CUSTOM guy that specializes in custom work. He took the black stuff out and fitted my grill with the small mesh. So it can be done you just have to find a custom guy. Cost me $40 for the grill to be done. Lookin great actually even better than great in fact its wickedly awesome. If you wany any more info PM me.

My mates bro cut it to shape for the bottom and used fishing line to hold it frimly in place if I remember correctly and for the grill he cut out the black bits himself and fiited the mesh over a weekend.

A TH grill is easier to do as it's 2 piece and if you work a bit harder and get carried away like I did you end up with this

Hey all.Havent been on for a long time but went to show and shine today and thoought I had better start making an effort......Anyway the grille itself was preety easy they pull apart (unscrew) and I put the mesh between the two sections and molded it around the edges.The bottom vents come up ok if you take them out and press the mesh around then sticker flex them around the sides ....you cant see the sticker flex but sticks like **** to a blanket.Also I have molded and pressed a section under the number plate to finish it off.It carries the concept all the way along the bottom...I think it looks a little better then having the gap between them but thats just me.Anyway hope this helps.And sorry for coming online more often but changed jobs now so I have heaps of time so things should change.
P.S.... Good show at southport today well done...............................

Sorry no pic at the moment.....have a heap but how do you put them up on the site ?????
