Just wanted to get a few tips as i am currently trying to tormeent a mechanic friend to help me get my front bumber meshed up to protect rad & intercooler etc, oh & it\'ll look boss but shh dont tell anyone the mesh comes in a max power bag http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008\' target=\'_blank\'>http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/23/23_7_1.gif\' border=0>

Anyway mine is a \'96 car with a \'99 front end kinda bumper on it as per image attached now i vaguely recall there is some kinda difference with support bar or sumin on the different years so basically i\'m fishing for any info & to start with the basics roughly where are the bolts etc which hold that bad boy on?
As i say any help greatfully received :god

Dude, why you taking the nose off just to mesh up them holes?? Cant u just remove the under tray (about 10x 10mm bolts from underneath) like you do with the <99 noses?? Are they that much different? Ask one of the importer guys e.g. Brian as he\'ll have no doubt meshed up a few 99-spec nose for SVA. On the <99 cars it take 20 minutes to whip the tray off, shove your mesh in and bolt back up...

whats best plan for attaching mesh you reckon? Motormall did do some stuff in the oil cooler gaps & looks like they just put a little hole in the bumper :rolleyes: & cable tied it on (will be replacing this also) but was advised to do it with glue gun etc by a friend who did a quality mesh job on his scoob.......
