Post How to Make a Mesh Grill

A lot of you have asked how to make a mesh grille. I have done Mesh grilles for 8-9 Vigors, my own TL and a couple of Legends.

I used the template of how to do it on a Legend but once you do it once on any car, IT IS VERY EASY AFTERWARDS!!!

Below are 2 links that give you a step by step tutorial. Taking out the grill from the TL is a bit different than for the Legend but it is NOT more difficult. The first has NICE PHOTOS to accompany the text.

GOOD LUCK

Uhh traye,

That is Home Depot Gutter Guard... Are you saying that your Home Depot Gutter Guard looks better than my Home Depot Gutter Guard??? That's a bit silly don't you think?

Correct me if I misinterpreted your post.

Yo AcSnake!

Wsup chief, I was happy to help you cats out! Don't even worry about it. Tell your dad I said what's up. Thanks on the Pet of the Month piece. Later.

I did this a loong time ago - I don't know if I found the info here, or I just took it apart and did it - it was pretty easy. I spray-painted the grille with a glossy black, and it looked great. I also put some guard behind the chin vents (I have a 3.2)... Looks great.
