I think you're going to have to be a bit more specific... that is, is this an aftermarket grille you purchased? If so, where did you get it and who makes it? If not, are you trying to make one yourself from some random mesh from Home Depot or something? Those often end up looking like crap unless you get some decent quality mesh and form it to the opening.

I got it at pep boys, I'm just wondering if I'm going to have to drill new holes for it to stay on since its just a flat mesh. I might just end up taking it bak and buying one specificly for a tC. Have you installed any like this on a tc before?

Or, use your mesh with the factory bits. Hack apart the OE grill and attach the mesh to the outer piece of it.
