steveo Posted September 15, 2005 Author Posted September 15, 2005 Did u cut out the standard grill and fix the mesh to that? Looks top quality.no mate did thishi mate first you need to make the profile of the old grill get a piece of stainless st24 mesh £22 from esp cut that to the template you have made found it easier to use an angle grinder but leave 6 tab's on the mesh at the top inline with the holes on the plastic grill these will look messy because of the way the mesh is made but your only going to sandwich them later on then you can make some straight alloy fixings to sandwitch the tabs to the 4 of the screws then screw the 2 tabs near the ends in to the plastic grill you need to get some edging for the mesh don't know where from as i got mine off a machine at work lol place it round the mesh and where the tabs are you need to cut a piece just out of the back above each tab so the front still looks ok then get some super strong glue and run it along the back of the grill were the old grill meets the back of the rubber edging to keep it all solid. few will post some pics later to make this all make sense i hope
steveo Posted September 15, 2005 Author Posted September 15, 2005 What did you use for the edging??got some metal edging from work don't no where you get it from mate
