Aim: Mesh grill
Required:
• Knife
• Phillips head screw driver
• 10mm spanner
• Mesh from Super Cheap Auto $30 ( colours: black, sliver, pink or blue)
• Pliers
• Big piece of material
Steps:
1.Place the material under the bumper. This is so when the bumper comes off it doesn’t get scratched by the concrete.
2.Remove the 5 clips holding the grill using a knife.
Note: keep these where they will not go missing or be blown away by the wind.
3.Start removing the bumper. Yes it seems too much to remove the bumper just to change the grill but it’s a must reason being there are 4 more clips holding the grill onto the bumper underneath. Remove the two bumper clips, two 10mm bolts underneath and then the two screws on the side.
4.Flip the bumper over and remove the 4 clips mentioned above and detach the grill from the bumper
5.There will be 9 little screws on the back of the grill that need removing
6.Detach the silver part from the black.
Then comes the cutting! Using any knife cut the inside of the original grill out.
7.Cut the mesh grill to size and put it over the grill.
Note: watch out for the little things that stick out. You may need to cut around it. Shown in photo
8.Screw EVERYTHING back on. And you’re done!

There was another post similar to this by EK4R but it didn’t have all the steps involved in getting to the grill so I decided to write this up.
