Need how to instructions for Home Depot Grill for 01

Finally bought some mesh from Home Depot but found out that the How To instructions for the mesh grill is no longer available. Tried search but didn't find anything very informative. Does anyone have a write up?

i placed my grill in front of those bars for the bottome grill so you couldnt see them and then zip tied the grill to those bars. think it looks cleaner that way. got my grill from grille-tech for 29 bucks. aint that expensive. plus its a nice finished product to the exact size that i needed. have a 2k

Got a pic of the Grille-tech? I had placed my bottom grill behind the bars, but I may try to move it in front when I get a chance.

Arggghhh! Well after 3 hours or so, I ended up scratching the hell out of my front bumper (pics to come later), not to mention the bloody and scratched up hands. I found out that the top grille doesn't come off except for the frame. I was hoping that I could some how have the mesh go over the main grille, but no luck.

No offense hotnicks, but I'm not digging the mesh behind the grille. Do you have a write up for the lower part of the bumper?
