After you take the stock grill out in the front, how are you supposed to put the new grille in? My new grille has no mounts or clips it is just a mesh and im not sure how to put it on.
Please help

 

your not supposed to take out the old grill did your new grill come with metal tie wraps???? cause if it did then it goes over the old one its not really hard to put it on

 

what grill did you get?

 

Its this grill at autozone its just a mesh. How is it supposed to fit if u dont take the old one out

 

you get to bend it to fit the opening, drill some holes, and ziptie it into place

 

the safest way is to do it like neothin says with zipties...i didnt do it that way

you got ripped off by autozone probably they charged u so much for mesh, lol....anyways......ok heres how i did it, without drilling holes........i kinda played around with cutting small holes into the mesh and making them fit the tabs, just get creative. I've had it holding on to the tabs for a week and every day i take highway to go to school and its held on......its very hard to make mesh look perfect, in fact it probably won't look perfect you might as well save for a real grill if you dont like some imperfections......

im probably going back to stock with mine but heres how it looks:








You can see that it isn't perfect in this picture, you can't tell from more than 2 feet away but im not happy with imperfections so im probably going back to stock until i can buy a premade grill

 

do u have to take off the bumper??

 

I actually just did a DIY grill with my xB and did a write up of it. It might take some more work for you but maybe this will give you some inspiration.
