I just put a body kit on my car. Although I should have meshed all the cut outs before paint I didn't have the time. I'm looking for some advice on the best way to attach the mesh on the cut outs especially on the front bumper. Please help.. Thanks

what material is the kit made out of fiberglass lexan urathane? and what kind of mesh is it?

It's fiberglass and I guess my next question is where I can get good mesh that's easy to install. I want the diamond shape cut outs in the mesh.. Thanks man

ok fiberglass is the easiest what you need is first the mesh I got mine at a auto zone it was a little spendy though if you can wait get it from jc whitney or something like that unless you find it for cheap. My vic has the bomex front it took 2 things of the wire. the other thing you need is fiber bondo its a fiberglass bondo good stuff. Now with those 2 things and a wire cutter your ready to work. Find somthing soft to lay the bumpper on after its off the car.

Is the wire stuff hard to find? So I have to thread the wire through the top and bottom parts of the mesh and bondo the wire and the mesh to the inside lip of the cut out? By the way thanks for all the help

then lay it down so you see the back side of the bumpper and start to fit the mesh cut the mesh so that it is about 2 to 3 inches bigger then the opening. Then bend the mesh around the hole so its as snug as possable. Now read the side of the can for the fiber bondo and mix accordingly spread over the mesh so it goes through and meets up with bumpper when it dries in like 2 minutes its as hard as a rock and make the mesh a part of the bumper thats how i did mine and i get a lot of comlements on it 2 years and no problems.

you dont have to thread it through just lay it on the insde and bend the mesh to the inside lip it will look alot cleaner
