Question about DIY Lower front bumper
Question about DIY Lower front bumper
I went to Home depot and found the metal screen , but my question is how do you hold it in place on the bumper. Do I have to take the bumper off and appy from the back or what.
Also should I spray something on the metal screen so it will not rust? If so what?

it would be easier to attach w/ the bumper off. you could probly just screw it onto the back of the black plastic grill type thing infront of the radiator, or you could use zip-ties or something similar...i would just screw it. you can also put the screen in front of the black plastic thing...your call.
you should be able to get the mesh/screen grill material in like galvanized finish or something so it wont rust...that would suck if it rusted [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]

ya you should spray it with something. mine didn't rust but it became dull... depending on the car, maybe its better to paint it... i have a black car n would like to keep the shiny silver color so i was thinking of spraying it with clearcoat, not sure on how it'll look tho...
n to attach it, i didn't have enough ***** to cut the black thing so i just put the grill infront of it. n it would be much easier if you removed the bumper. n go ahead n clear your lights if you havn't already. oh n i attached it with a fishing line. i probably tied it 10 times. it held so far so [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
