Fogs/mesh in lower Stock Bumper 04-06 *Lots A pics*
I had been getting some questions about what I had done to my bumper so I thought I would share in the experience.

Auto door trim molding. $3 (not pictured yet) 4. Pair of Fogs from Checkers auto $32. 5. Demel (already purchased) 6. Mesh (left over from Grill mod)(not pictured yet) https://i193.photobucket.com/albums/...r/supplies.jpg https://i193.photobucket.com/albums/...erCoupling.jpg https://i193.photobucket.com/albums/...xpwr/2fogs.jpg |

BEAUTIFUL!!! Its basically what I want to do to the rear (mesh opening) except I have to make the cut out by hand. Ill check out Autozone for the door edge guard material to cover the edge after I make the cut out. In my online research I found someone else had done this too. Can you get some day time pics with the sun shining on the grill so its more visible. How much did the project cost?

BALLIN!!!!

Nice MAXX! Thanks for the PM. Pics are nice and the custom upgrade is the shizznit. Nissan should have done this to begin with. Dumb a**es!

I had spare mesh from doing my grill, an 18x42" powder coated gloss black piece cost about $70. The other items for the bumper was just over $60. I tried looking for the trim product on autozone's website and couldn't find it. I have some left in the garage, I'll see if they have a website. |
great work !
Looks like it will be on the " To do list" |

There are 2 pieces per package 27" long each. It also has its own adhesive inside the U so you shouldn't need any type of glue for it. |

Looks good, and breaks up the big "smilie" across the bottom...
|
a DIY write up would be nice.
im interested on doing this project this weekend! just what i wanted. useful fogs |
Id like to see some GOOD daytime pics where you can see the mesh better. I know black cars are hard to photograph, but I wait til sun is lower in horizon and have it shining on the front.
