wire mesh grill

i just read the how to for making my own mesh grill, but one question. If i dont want to use my stock grill behind the mesh, how can i make it keep its form and all? I dont want to see the stock on behind it.

Cut it out.Drill a few holes and zip tie the mesh in a position.

if you zip tie it at each corner, it will be pretty securely held in place. You might be able to see thru easier since there is no back but I assume that Is that you want.

Glad look so damn good. I painted my mesh black and put it over the stock grill and you cant see it. But either way its a damn good look especially on a black car.
