    Default Stazi-Blue- fuz Grilles

    Just wondering what you used to keep the lower front mesh tight I had to use zip ties to keep it flush and tight on the Bumper but doesnt look so good when you walk up to it Any ideas?

    I used small binder clips. I put them in place, then take out the silver tab finger handle

    I have the 3/4" size so they're relatively small. The perfect size for the tab, and the tabs thickness mounting on the bumper makes it thick enough so that the clips hold strong

    The clips suck, trust me. Tried it, and its not a "safe" method. Use the screw method and you don't got to worry

    I have my mesh off right now for repainting. Its like this:

    put your stazi mesh in position (the best u can) and get someone from the front of the car to pull it against the bumper. Make sure the tabs go through holes in the mesh...and once they pull it tightly against the bumper, slide under with a drill and try to pop a screw thru the middle of the tab, as close to the mesh as possible, that way if they let the mesh go, it will move a tiny bit and hit the screw and then stop and be secure (thats why you need to get it tight as possible and get the screw as close as possible)

    Only pop the screws halfway so that theres half screw ontop of the bumper tab and the other half underneath (this holds the mesh)
