DIY - grill mesh

Guest
Hi chaps, I've got a 2000 seat leon and was thinking about taking out the black plastic grills and vents at the front and re-doing it with some mesh that i've got, has anyone done this and if so whats the best way of making the mesh stick? cant seem to find any on ebay so gonna try a home job! cheers

Make sure you take your time fitting it, nothing worse than a car thats got wonky B&Q mesh all over the front.

I used some thick rubbery glue once, that held it but it was only the plastic mesh and covered a small area but even that wasn't perfectly taught. I'm sure someone will come up with the answer.

plus cheap mesh often goes a manki colour.
the good stuff stays a nice shiney colour or you could always spray the mesh.
dont think it would be a too easy job tho as it dont seem like theres many places to stick the mesh.
