Make a grill - it's easy!

figured WTF, the stock grill couldn't look much worse, so I gaver and made one too...pretty much followed the how-to - grill is fastened with double sided threaded carpet tape..supper sticky! I know this is a pretty boring post 'cause the pics are just snpashots and everyone else has done it - but I'm just posting to say it's easy and recommended!




the mesh ($2.99 for a roll! LOL! F U autozone!)

That I'll need to ask my bro. I was by his place to pick up his dremel which I ended up not using (NOTE: if power tools make you wary on this project, do as I do - just use a one-handed, fine-tooth hacksaw!) and saw this roll of mesh there..he said he'd never used it for anything (it was supposed to be for some dog training thing?), and the price tag still had 2.99 on it. I'll try and find out..there's enough mesh here for 100 grills. lol

That looks like a roll of raingutter mesh. I have some at home (galvanized, though, not black) Any hardware store should have it.

The mesh I measured so it fits under the lip the grill has and it holds itself there - from there you're free to complete te fastening any way you like (glue, strong tape, etc).
