im guessing that u mean the meshing for ur front bumper...but people do it different ways...some ziptie it to the posts or others use wire...they buy wire...strip it...take the copper wiring and just tie it to the posts with that.

use epoxy and place and place wires in the eboxy do that a round the opening on the inside of the bumper..then let that dry..then pace your mesh where you want it the put the wires through the hole and loop them to hold it on...if you can understand that..its the best way to do it..
id show you pics but dont have a camera and im at school

u dont have to remove the front bumper. if u want the mesh behind the posts, just remove the plastic thing under the car and just reach under.

u can pretty much get the black mesh from any general auto store. its the 'saas' product range of meshin, if the auto place dont have em they can prolly order it in for ya cause its pretty common.
