I'm thinking about doing both the top and bottom grills. Can anyone send me some info on how to do this with a 99' CL?

Thanx ahead...

GotRice, our grilles are 1 piece so if you wanna mesh it, you gotta do the whole thing including the chrome trim ring. Or you could get the 97 one and do it that way. For the bottom, just get the 6"x20' roll at home depot or sears hardware andcut the length you need, then carefully stuff it down into the bumper and even it out. To fasten it, i used black twistie wire. Click the link in my sig for pics

one question, when you put the mesh on the bottom....isn't it suppose to be in front of the little bars on the bumper??? Yours are behind it....

JLai

Yea...i meant how to do the mesh in front of it.

Guys that looks like crap...sorry, but it does, you can see the old grille

this is what you: go to a performance shop and get the real mesh from Cali that they put on bodykits, and cut it to the size (with over lap and bondo it to your inside bumper. As for the top you have to buy the 97 Grille and take it apart, check out PHASTCL's CL and you will see what I mean

I agree...they way HE did it looks like crap. On the outside it looks tight.

i wanted mine to be on the inside and that's why i have it there, i thought you wanted it on teh inside too, not the outside. didn't ask for how much you guys hated it just to see how i did it, tryin to help.

so basically we've gotton nowhere with this thread.... I too want to put mash on the front grill. More times I see that people have done a really ugly job on it, and I want mine to look very clean...I also want mine to be on the outside (no offence, my preference) but your grill still looks safe on the inside Blacura. Ideally I'd want mine to look like CLxtreme's but there's no instructions on the site. Bottom line...I think I speak for Got Rice? too, is that we want step by step instructions on how to do this.
P.S. does it look batter to double layer the mesh
P.S.S. does any1 know of any billet grills for our car, those might be tight.

see i don't think bein able to see the black stuff looks like shit. In MaCe's post there seemed to be no flames but maybe just with mine. I think mace's looks tight, i might add some layers. Plus my way is a lot easier (20 min) and requires no bondo.

Blacura

nevermind, just read that he wanted to do the outside.

I think thats a pretty tight grille Blacura.... Don't pay attention to these haters

Blacura

you guys gonna tell silverknight that his grille is shitty too cause you can see his 'old' grille?

Thanks Marc nice rims btw

MaCe

Not hating...just not my thing. I'm just looking for it to go on the outside. Something like how GrillCraft would make it or what not.
