Mesh Grill OEM bumper

Post by Mazda3 »

Hello,<p> I got a fx design combat chin spoiler coming to add to my car. I am wondering has anyone put mesh in there oem bumper before. It looked pretty easy when I first looked at it however I guess it would have to go in from the front instead from the back like your supposed to. Any ideas or suggestions on how others did this be great. Maybe even a pic. Thanks for any help

We changed mine it was a little difficult. we cut the middle out and had to use bondo and mesh to provide support and to cover the hole. we then used bondo to mold the mesh in the back. Lots of sanding to get it look right, and several thin layers of Bondo, but I think it turned out good.

Notice that we also changed the grill above as well (the small one) so that it matched.
