do any of u guys know how i can install and mesh grill on my 2002 tl?? im havin trouble, it seems like it's easy for the 99-01 tl's but my grill is way bigger, any help would be appreciated thanx.

 

anyone?

 

I've never tried it, or seen it on an 02 TL. It's easy on my CL cause the chrome trim around the grille is one piece. I just took off the trim and laid the mesh under it and put the trim back on to clamp it down. Sorry we're not much help.

 

ya it's easy on ur ride, on my car the top chrome trim is part of the hood, so do i lay the mesh over the wings and "A" symbol?

 

I think the TL's grille is too big for the gutter guard solution....you may be able to find pre-made aftermarket grilles for the TL.

 

no i dont think they make pre-made grills for it, there i one guy on acura-tl.com who has done it but i havent heard back from him just yet, 02-03 grill's are bigger but i guess u just use more mesh, u soder a extra piece on or somethin, would i be able to stick mesh in just over the stock black honeycomb crap?

 

I'm trying to think of what exactly your grille looks like....

I forgot to say, I also removed the A and replaced over the mesh so it's visible. I think the gutter guard is 6" wide, so if you could solder 2 pieces together it would probably work. Maybe take the lower chome strip, and the A off and put the mesh behind those.

^^^thats my grill, i have the honeycomb plastic mesh behind my grill already, and my chrome trim doesnt come either i think, i think what i could do is cut my mesh in to 2 pieces and play on over the "A" and one under, like above and beneath the chrome wings, but how would i secure it?

 

hmmmm, I need to see one in person to see how it all comes apart. you could just paint that plastic mesh body color, that looks pretty good.

 

ya i could, but it's large honeycomb kind of mesh, maybe this is all to much hassle for whats it's worth, maybe i should just leave it alone, i dunno lol on a better note i debadged the rear but left the big 'A' looks sweeet.
