It looks like its all not cut..Its all just rectangles...I may just be playing dumb though since I have never seen it off of a car.

the two rectangles have slots cut in them that slide over the tabs sticking out of the bumpers, just slide them on. the grille piece is a whole nother beast all together!

It is precut. By precut, Elky has cut holes where the tabs line up with the mesh. The actual outside part of the mesh will still be large rectangles. As others said, the oval is a bit different...

No offense meant toward Elky because I absolutly love his mesh, but when I recieved mine the cuts did not line up with the tabs on the front grill (not oval). Install was still easy. Removing the front bumper is easy and will make a WORLD of difference compared to laying on the ground trying to see what your doing.
And as far as the oval goes, it is tricky, I just did mine a few weeks back and will get some pictures up here for you later tonight.

I did mine but never took the bumper out. I'm going to have to redo it later, because it isn't in very secure. The grille is easier since you can just cut the mesh with tin snips and screw it in.
