i wanna put a grill mesh on my air dam on my 99 cl do they sell kits or do i have to make it myself

 

look down the page, there is another thread on this. either that or please do a search.

 

I just put a grill in my 99CL this weekend. You can get the material you need at Home Depote. Gutter gard. It comes in rolls or lengths of about 2 1/2 feet. I don't remember exactly, but it takes two of the cut lengths. Thats what I used, because it is stiffer I thought it would hold up longer. Looks better than I thougt it would. Just cut to size and install with black tye- raps to the exsisting grill. Cost about $4.00

 

hey bluesman can you take pics of your grill on the inside of the hood? i wanna make my own grill too but i wanna see how you tied it down on the inside.

 

Can do but give me a day. I only did the lower air dam however. Is this what you mean?

 

actually i wanted to see the upper one done but pics of the lower one will do also. you planning on doing the upper??? thanks man
p.s. what did you use to cut the grill???

 

Na, I like it as is. I cut the grill with snips (sessors used by telephone craft) but tin snips will do. It cut pretty easy. All Ihad to do was extend the length. So I just made sure the seam was behind one of the vertical bars.

 

blacura di his a while back it looked kinda ricey (no offense bro) but i reccomend just doing the top grille

 

The picks will tell the tail.

 

I don't think this will do you much good. Hard to get inside the grill. In any case you cansee how it looks. I like!

 

What do you guys think?

 

Iwanted to up date this so you would see.

 

i didnt like the way it looked behind the original grill so i drill slots on the side of the air dam and i slid the grill through the two sides. I then sprayed it with a metallic silver paint.

 

cuz u have the 99 cl ur hood grill is one piece. the 97 is 3. i prefer to just paint the oem 97 rather than mesh it, but thats me. also i like the grill in front of the oem plastic piece on the bottom.
I might be sellin my 97 for a 99. not 100% sure yet. im also int he process of duplicating my lower grill for another member of the board. cant sell mine cuz i cut holes in it for fogs and plate. I no longer want the sporty look

 

I like you'rs too. I think the grill in front kinda looks Soprano. As in Ferrari.

 

i would do my lower grill, but i'm lazy, and we have lots roadkill around here..so it would probly get knocked out! I wish i didn't get pulled over for not having a front license plate, mine looks very :ghey:
