i have a 95 maxima. i want to put some mesh in the bottom two holes. and also i cut out the spots for the fogs but i dont have any some i was going to put mesh in there too. my ? is what should i use to hold everything in place but i dont really want to use glue if i dont have to.
thanks

 

I drilled small holes and ran body color zip ties

 

i didn't even have to drill holes, but i was able to hold those on with just a few long zip ties that run back to those couple of supports in there. they are black and not even noticeable. i like the look, but you can tell it's homemade.

 

Sorry if I'm pirating this thread, but does anybody have any pics of this? Using the mesh on the fog light holes and/or the air vents in the front bumper?

 

Here's a couple of pics to give you an idea, I'm not happy enough with it so I'm going to re do it soon. I want it to match my side skirt vents and fit better. I'm thinking of putting the two lower mesh sections in a rubber type trim next time to give a cleaner edge look??

 

that rubber is a good idea. i had the same problem. it's hard to trim it just right to make it follow the vent cleanly.

oh, and i think you should get some fotlights rather than just putting some mesh in there instead. would it look bad if you had the mesh infront of the fogs? it would look kinda showy during the day, then during the night, if the mesh was right infront of the fog, it would still illuminate just fine?

what did u use to hold that in place. and where would u find a rubber trim

 

I used Zap straps, rubber trim from Home depot, not 100% sure haven't got around to doing the research yet, or even door edge guard could work

 

How about using those door edge protectors to finish off the edges? They come in chrome, black plastic, etc. I used black for the little area around the hood release so the mesh doesn't cut my fingers.
