Ian Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 I'm trying to find some fine black mesh for my front grille I want this sort of mesh & not the disgusting shiney grilles I keep finding CS, Envy, Adam can any of you guys get hold of some thats the right size for the oem bumper? Also how easy is it to remove the existing grille? Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Ian, I remember a customer who bought some mesh from Halfords, they had different size mesh patterns available, it might be worth having a look… Another customer bought some mesh from a garden centre… I know we’ve got a roll but the mesh pattern is huge, it was for a Supra, I don’t think it would suit the Zed… Quote
Chilli Red Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Yes, Halfords, but if you want something like the one on the car in the picture, we have some here. It is galvanised and would need painting. Quote
Ian Posted February 25, 2009 Author Posted February 25, 2009 Yes, Halfords, but if you want something like the one on the car in the picture, we have some here. It is galvanised and would need painting. How much & any pics of it? Quote
IanS16 Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Ian, I re-fitted the grille on mine last week. Phil originally used some sort of silicon to adhere it to the plastic but I used no more nails and 2 screws (1x under the carbon lip and one just under the numberplate. If you are going to remove the reflectors and replace them with mesh make sure you use big strips as there is a lot of folding required to get them to stick in place. Anyway, if you need any help just Pm me Quote

Nice one, Sarah, added bonus as it’s galvanised too, good for the longevity of the look… Quote

Thats great Sarah, Thanks Anyone know how to get the oem grille out? Quote
M350ZB Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Yep, you cut it off When i first got my zed i bought a grill insert, without realising the OEM grill has to be cut out, looks like a pretty big job, but if you got the time and tools, you will be able to pull it off Quote
Ian Posted February 25, 2009 Author Posted February 25, 2009 Bugger was hoping that wasn't the case, I'll have to get the bumper off and cut it out then. If I'm feeling really brave I may attempt the bonnet latches Quote

Pimm Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Ian, i was at that very show. It never snowed that day Quote
Chilli Red Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 If you want it you have two choices 1/ I will wrap it up and take it to the PO and send it to you 2/ Make it over for Mod day and I'm sure someone will help fit it. we have jacks/ramps and tools It is big enough I just cut the picture short so you didn't get too much of Tony in it. The choice as they say is yours. ps I will clean it up for you Quote
