Well no have to cut the originia grill to make it " meshgrill". Just give to the mesh grill the curve for f the original and use the same screws.

I recomend for the job before painting the chrome part use a sealler.


Sorry some time I want to writte to fast and don't check my spelling...

Something else though, you might want to try and clear coat it after the paint drys. I've noticed that from hitting bugs small spots of chrome show :cry: Easy fix though :lol:

You should be able to, look arround in some auto stores. They should have some sort of clear coat spray cans.
