Ideas on front bumper mesh?
I'm looking for front meshing for the bumper, becasue lately I've been getting alot of crap inside that area and I think it would be nice to block some big objects such as birds...
So far I had to remove a bird from the air damn, and boy it was not fun.
My friend did some chicken wire, anyone have anywhere or ideas what to use?
Someone said home depot but what to get exactly?

I can make one of these for you.
I had the same question and ended up cutting my own. I looks great, but it took a while. It took me forever to find the materials, make the pattern, and cut the grille. Now I have a pattern and sell the grilles pre-cut on eBay. I don't have any listed right now, but if anyone is interested I can re-list them. Here's some pictures of what I did.

It was $32 for a package of that ^^^^ mesh from the auto parts store. So I picked a roll of stuff up at Home Depot this weekend for$9. I found it in the AC vent aisle. It's not chicken wire.

I'm wonder about the front plate now, I think i'd get busted alot for having it off since my car is blue, think put it in the air dam is a good idea? or hang it lower ?

how does that crap come out in the middle,...the um......blak crap under the liscense plate, does it just pop out?
my cousin just did his grill on his gti and he used the guttergaurd mesh from home depot 10 bucks for a shitload of it..all u gotta do is cut it.
sounds like a plan.
considering its thicker, stronger, and just more expensive looking than the stuff you pay 30-40 dollars for.
so...can someone tell me how that crap comes out..i know the fog light covers just pop out..
but im not sure of the other part.
thanks

You could always do what I did. Ignore the Mugen grille install and scroll down to the lower grille mesh install, Just pick up some universal black mesh as JTso pointed out.

I liked the look but I haad trouble doing the install, the ends were sharp and I had to flatten out the mesh becasue it got bent on the way here. So its not too bad I'm going to reuse zipties and take off the bumper and do it.
Oh I have to find someway to put on the license plate...
