Default Front vent grills

I think this has been discussed some time ok, but I can't locate the thread. So for those with the sport design front bumper has anyone come up with a clean way to add mesh like protection to protect the radiators?

How challenging is it to remove that fascia?

There's a few DIY's posted on here somewhere.

Pretty straight forward with only a few hidden or hard to reach clips.

I'll post up some comments after I install.

Removing front facia is a lot easier than you might think, even with only one set of hands.

I posted a few DIYs here and elsewhere. Check out Radiator Grill Installation

Ask questions, glad to help out.

Great. The Renntech ones are horribly overpriced, but I'd like to screw whatever grill I end up using (whether Renntech or Home Desperation) into the fascia rather than using zip ties.

Rennline are pre-formed, powder coated after, and fasten on. No silly zip ties.

Zip ties? Who uses silly zip ties??? Geez, people around these boards don't appreciate DIY, but bitch about spending a couple hundred for someone else to do all the fabrication.... Rough crowd.

Oh, and I didn't use any silly zip ties. But I also didn't screw any holes into my bumper either....
