It's amazing that Home N Depot is a Maxima owner's great friend! Just look at what people could get from there for their Max! From grill to flourscent light covers. Not to mention the Vac hose and dryer hose!

Mesh Man!

Awesome work man!! Looks good! I have a Sterling Mist so i wonder what ties I should use? Any ideas of how I can install it so the ties don't show? I'm going to paint the grill the same color as my calipers which should look interesting...i hope not rice though..only cost me $2.50 to go back to "stock" grill.

Re: Mesh Man!

Well, you can use zip ties white ones on top or black on top of the area, you can't see them unless you bend down and look. The bottom will hold itself in place not well, but I wanted a solid fit so I did the bottom as well with the small ties I had which can not really be seen...
