      I tried to follow this but ended up just trying to make it work in the end because of the horrible pics (no offence) this is how it turned out.

          I couldn't find it I went to home depot and canadian tire, I found a few but they wanted like $50 for it, so I bought a mesh garbage can from dollerama and used my dads metal scissors and cut it to what I needed.

            Building materials, it's gutter-cover shit. Same end of the store as Lumber, I know because Home Depot was my employer for 2.5 years.

              sounds like someone knows their Home Depot...

              Cust:"Mesh Wire?"
              You:"Aisle 14, all the way down, on the left."
              Cust:"Rubber mallets/hammers?"
              You:"Aisle 6, about halfway down on the right. Bottom shelf."

                That's for damn sure, you get attacked from all directions at once on the weekends,especially during the summer. If you don't know where stuff is, you get side-tracked really easily. Customers need their hands held there I swear.....

                I ran lumber for a while at the Depot, my father is a wood worker by trade. Let's just say my wood resume is long and distinguished. Ah ha ha!!!

                    Grill redone, I didn't like how the grill (mesh) was hard to see, so I tacked something up that my dad suggested, I put the mesh inbetween the 2 "rails" (I dunno what they're called) using the screws through each mesh slot to hold the mesh on. I love how it came out, here are pics.

                        Well my oem grill got crushed in the accident and I got a aftermarket one and the problem is that all of the grill is one piece there are no screws. is it possible to do a grill hack with this kind of grill or do I need an oem one?

                          i tried gettin my mesh from home depot, i think it looks like ass though, when i redid it i got my mesh here at Custom Car Grills i love the way my mesh looks, i need to redo it and cut out the middle of the grill, i just laid it over and used the screws from the chrome trim to hold it on. i think it looks good, i just dont like the edges because i had to wrap the mesh around it... but anyways abotu the site, they have a couple different types of mesh. check it out.

                          peace guys

                            I had to strech it out because of 1) it never fit properly and 2) because of the previous cut it was a tad too small so I had to strech it.

                                Here's another question: When you hack a 90/91 grill and do it right is it exactly how a g-square is? I mean does it fit on a 92/93 front and look ok or does it line up wrong? the G-square looks about exactly the same and i wonder if it looks right on a 92/93 front end?
