Pete Posted February 15, 2003 Share Posted February 15, 2003 Or glue little 'L' shapes of metal to the inside of the bumper around the hole, then bolt the mesh to the 'L' shapes. Works a treat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted February 15, 2003 Share Posted February 15, 2003 Lee, I've just dropped me bumpers off to Decs @ Chameleon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pelles Posted February 15, 2003 Share Posted February 15, 2003 (edited) yea bond them on with some special glue...dont know if you can get it in halfords, but it would probably be a big tub, as you need quite a bit to do the bumpers i think my mesh has been put on with fibreglass....unsure once you do it, make sure you do it all the way around and just not at the sides or it will be liable to bend if its hit with something at speed, or fall off....mines is only done at the side, but im telling them to do it all the way around.

Al Posted February 15, 2003 Share Posted February 15, 2003 When i 'meshed' my front bumper, i had the same problem as i didn't want to take the front bumper off (lots of hassle) I held the mesh in place,and used JB weld to bond into place.Sets hard as rock overnight. You should be able to make out the lumps of glue in the pics. Al. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
